Whenever a new version of *anything* comes out, you always read
about people having problems." But realize two things:
1. If you're reading about problems *in the newsgroup*, this
where people come with their problems, not with their successes.
You get a very distorted view of what's going on in the real
world here; as someone once said, "hang around a transmission
shop and you will think that all cars have transmission
problems."
2. Most problems, by far, that people report--whether or not they
are SP2-related--have nothing to do with defects in the software.
They result from people's ignorance, from bad or inadequate
hardware, from old drivers, from viruses, from spyware, and so
on. And except for very rare situations, they always get a fix
for their problems, and in most cases, that fix is a very simple
one to implement.
