Ed Bott’s Microsoft Challenge–8/24/00

Windows 2000 Service Pack 1 has now been available for one month. I’m interested in hearing reviews from TechRepublic members. If you’ve upgraded, how did your installation go? Did you run into any bugs, gotchas, or BSODs? Would you recommend SP1 for anyone running W2K, or should administrators install it only if they have known problems to deal with? As always, I’ll pick the best answers and spotlight them in my column in two weeks, so make sure you cite specifics and make a compelling case. If you’ve got links to well-hidden information about SP1, those are especially welcome. I’ll send a cool TechRepublic T-shirt to anyone who comes up with a great SP1-specific Web site that I didn’t know about.
