I had to format my computer yesterday, so I lost all the windows updates.
I wanted to know what's best: "downloading all the updates right now or waiting for SP2.

I ask you this because I have a slow connection (dial-up).

Thanx

SP2 is due out in a day or two; I'd hold off.

Hello,

You will be able to order the Service Pack on cd. Link is not available as
yet.
My recommendation is to update now.
