The CD's are supposed to hit Comp USA and Best BUy within the next month or two for SP2. The download link in this email should work fine for you even though it is the large network install if you really need it and have broadband go for it. On Wed, 2004-09-01 at 03:59, Sean Donelan wrote:

CompUSA is offering to install XP SP2 on any Windows XP computer for free if you bring your computer to any of their stores. Expect them to use the opportunity to try to sell you some upgrades or security software.
You can order a Free CD on the Microsoft web site. Although it says 4-6 weeks, people report they are getting a CD in the mail in about a week.
There has been talk about Microsoft XP SP2 CD's being distribued through various consumer and business electronics stores. But I haven't seen any yet.
