Anyone installed it yet (besides me lol). If so, what do you think? i just did it so I haven't had time to see if anything works better.........

Find it in the link below. it's about halfway down the page. There are both a 32 and 64 bit versions, along with a version for an ISO so you can burn it and update many computers.

Cool Dave, thanks. SOme folks were saying it took them hours to down load. I downloaded the iso for 32 bit on my buddy's computer and it took about 20 minutes maybe. On mine, I opened then 64 bit SP2 and installed it from the MS site. It took about 4 minutes to download and maybe 20-25 for installation.

NOTE: I had installed the Korean language package a year or so ago. i had to uninstall it before I could do the SP2 install. The only languages supported so far are the five they state in the documentation so be aware of that before you attempt to download the Service package.

(Nice job on the title Hybrid, I meant to mention the server 2008 as well).
