Windows XP Sp2 Suggestion

For those of you who are weary of install Sp2 still, here is what I suggest
and I have done this on 10 different PC's and not had any problems.
1. Save your data. Also download latest software updates from your
applications vendor websites (eg Cannon, HP, etc)
2. Reinstall XP from scratch
3. Download/install Sp2
4. run windows update.
5. Reload apps and all will be ok.
