I think it should be called xp second edition (be downloadable, and not a purchase), but that is just my unsolicited opinion. If you do try to get it from somewhere other than Microsoft (which I don't recommend), RC1 is build 2096. If what you get is different, I'd be worried about a virus or trojan.

This most certainly is NOT XP second edition. It can't exist outside
an existing installation of XP.
