Waiting and watching

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

So XP SP2 has released to manufacturing. I’m going to be keeping a careful eye on reactions, issues, breakage, etc. for the next few days. Hopefully after I’ve had a few days to see what everyone else is experiencing with this, I’ll go get it myself and start testing on our network. Luckily there are only 5 XP machines, including my own, currently on our network, so I can take my time a little bit and make sure it’s all under control before rolling it out to the other 4 machines, and then making sure it gets added to any new machines that come in later this year. (Yeah we’re a bit behind the times on our OS choices, what else is new?)

Here looks like a good place to start, and the SP2 forums probably have a wealth of info!

    Someone I work with sent me this article. I’m not sure what that says about them or what they think of me, but it raises some interesting points, especially in regards to finding that line between keeping your employees from being too unproductive with their use of the internet connection and being so strict that…

    Yeah I’ve only got these 3 days to get through before I head off to Gnomedex Thursday morning. I can tell you, mentally, I’m already gone. *L* Not that I won’t do my job well and make sure all of my loose ends are tied up before I head out for what will be 12…
