Well I found SP2 to break my copy of Xilinx ISE 6.2isp3, the VHDL compiler I use at work. it crashes every time I ask it to compile. Uninstalling SP2 makes it compile again

I'm very serious about the improvements for Tablets. This is the long awaited "Lonestar" patch; which is officially called Windows XP Tablet PC edition 2005 (no; I don't why 2005 either). Basically, it's a new TIP; with easier correction; and learned more different handwriting styles (it now understands my curly "x"). It's enough change to make you wish that this TIP had been there since day one.

It broke Pivot Pro at work.
I am spoiled by having a single 18" FP landscape and 2 19" FP portrate to program on.
The 19s look funny turned back landscape and with all the text I have to look at it's just not as handy.
I'm going to have to think about uninstalling it.

they even suggest to use "automatic windows updates" to avoid any possible delay in updating and/or fixing any vulnerabilities and flaws
unfortunately, none of our major apps are successfully ported to Linux just yet, so I'm stuck between a rock and a really hard place ...Despite my nickname causing confusion, I am not female ...
