Many people report great success with SP2 RC1.
However if you have to ask the question it is probably not for you.
Since it is prerelease, there is no support of any kind from Microsoft
except a limited amount in the SP2 newsgroups, referenced in the link
below.
Any Beta/prerelease software is always at your own risk.
Do not install unless you are prepared to for a Clean Installation in
the unlikely event something goes wrong.
