Yes, it contains all changes for XP Home, Pro, Media & Tablet editions.

I just finished slipstreaming all five of my XO CDs (Two home upgrades, Two
Pro Upgrades and one Pro Full install with no problem with the AutoStream
software found at the second URL listed on my original post. Took all of
about 1 hour for all five copies.

Now I'll burn them to CDs and test them on one system I have as a strictly
test system then I'll be ready for rebuilding if necessary.
