First, let me say ..I have a perfectly legal preinstalled version of XP on my PC
Now I have an honest and serious question for all..What if we / I choose NOT to install SP2..?
What if were/ I'm tired of giving up more and more hard disk space to Microsoft for endless ENDLESS security updates ..?
What if I dont want a firewall which I cant turn totally off if I choose to ..?
Why should I just say "here Microsoft ..take complete control of my PC and my internet activities"??
What if we / I think "enough is enough.??"
