CRN Test Center engineers evaluated a release candidate two (RC2) version of [Windows XP Service Pack 2], and upon completion of the install on three out of five systems, the machines blue-screened.

[...]

[Engineers] had to rename "spuninst.txt" to "spuninst.bat" and execute the batch command "batch spuninst.bat." When that process was completed, a rollback of the Service Pack file should have occurred. That didn't happen.

[...]

After that process finished, some interesting events occurred.

Maybe [livejournal.com profile] vspope is smarter than i think for sticking with 98SE.

I like Macs; I have a loaded IIfx within arm's reach right now. (Cost $18K when an old employer bought it, got it for free, has 128MB RAM in it. Long story.)

I have MacOS 8.1 installed on my PC via Basilisk II, but I use it mostly for Maelstrom and other Ambrosia titles.
