you know about two issues back PC format had the coolest hint ever.
<BR>
<BR>There was a web address to go to and u could order SP-1 on cd.
<BR>
<BR>I gave it a whirl and about 8 days later a package arrived DHL from Ireland strangely enough with SP1 all wrapped lovingly in bubble wrap
<BR>
<BR>Cost = $0 - FREE !! <IMG SRC="images/forum/smilies/icon_smile.gif"> <IMG SRC="images/forum/smilies/icon_smile.gif">

if you buy XP Pro now they give you SP1 (at least they do from rectron) So if you know anyone who just got a new computer ask them!!

<BR>i thought that´s an obvious joke. <IMG SRC="images/forum/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif">
<BR>
<BR>i was thinking though that if Cameron can waste ~100Mb of PCF cd space to put 3D Marks 2003 why can´t he waste another ~100Mb of PCF cd space to put XP SP1?
<BR>
<BR>the Linux distro on the .net cd though is no joke. it´s coming any time soon.
