I'm using XP SP2 right now, and have been beta testing it here at work for months. At first there were some issues that needed addressing, but for the most part it has been a lot smoother than even I expected - the security updates are good things, IMHO, and will make it a little harder for the average home user to do stupid things that mess themselves up.

That being said, I'm sure it will confuse some people. That's to be expected, though...

Do I still need it with a firewall and virus checker? I also regularly clean out the spyware? XP never seems to cause me any problems and I am reluctant to fix something that evidently doesn't need fixing.

Anything you can share with us lowly PC users who aren't sure if we need to update?
