Random movie quote to make you seem hip and "with it": I'm thinking about getting metal legs. It's a risky operation, but it'll be worth it.

SP1 stands for "Service Pack 1". Its a way of updating Microsoft's jacked up OS. It has updated drivers and stuff. "Windows Update" will get you the latest SP. Its somewhere under the start menu....However, i only recommend you use the web update if you have a high speed connection. MS also has the full SP1 program file so you can download it all at once then install. It may say Network Install Version or something of the sort....

Hope that helps...peace :D

Keep in mind you have to have a legally licensed copy of xp - the corporate versions that did not need to be activated will NOT upgrade to sp1.

He is not any worse than any other poster here, and the people who claim he is just don't know what they're talking about. The demonization has gotten ridiculously out of hand.
