    No real surprise - I guess Win7 is taking up a lot of their resources.

    FWIW I am running the SP2 beta without any issues.

    I'm running the SP2 beta with LOTS of issues. It makes Outlook crash left, right & center. Sidebar stops responding every so often & IE does the same on occasion. Some "disruptive" shutdowns also occur.

    I checked my reliability score, and it went from around 7.25-8.25 when running SP1 down to 1.8-3.3 running SP2 :(

    Not quite finished yet then. Contrast this to Win 7 which is reported by an overwhelming no. of users to be stable & usable.

    I was looking forward to having SP2 getting released in April but apprently that isn't going to happen. I guess Microsoft is still getting all the bugs ironed out of SP2 and they are also working on Windows 7. I guess we will have to wait until the 2nd quarter of 2009 for SP2 to be released. :(

    Interesting, as the Beta on my beater box actually resolved a couple of annoying problems I was having..
