That's about right. I ordered the SP2 upgrade CD from Microsoft twice(one for me and one for a friend) and both took about a week to arrive.

Now you're all set to do the upgrade. Make sure your computer is free of spyware and other "nasties", and that your antivirus program is turned off before you start the upgrade.

If I recall, aren't you the person who doesn't like to install any Windows updates at all and prefers to do a Windows reinstall once or twice a year?

I can only speak for myself.....I have installed SP2 on two laptops and everything worked properly. No glitches at all
That was the network download version.
