yeah very funny <_<

i will rephrase my question so its a little more helpful..People could sign up on windowsbeta to receive ids from microsoft whenever a beta is out...randomly selected. Now if they have been given an id for sp2 then i was wondering if you could share it with me.

link working now but the filesize is 260 meg and the released sp2 is 266mb.

@ supersonic, is this the beta build or the final rtm build? does it say rtm in your build information when you click about windows

I personally don&#39;t see the point of installing windows beta&#39;s, they could make your system unstable. In any case if you have downloaded the updates from microsoft site you already have all the security patches sp2 contains.

Better wait for the public release. ;)

i&#39;ll second that by saying that there&#39;s no point getting those RTMs when we can officially download it within the next 24 hours (if i&#39;m not wrong...or...if microsoft is not pulling our legs again)
