Re: Installing Tablet 2005 with SP2 already installed

Notifications are few and far between, but on related sites (like
Microsoft's Tablet PC information -
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/t.../download.mspx) it does
say "The free Windows XP Tablet PC Edition 2005 update comes with Windows XP
Service Pack 2 (SP2) and is available for new and existing Tablet PC users."
8-)

The truth be known, the Tablet PC Edition 2005 and the Media Center Edition
counterpart (supersets) are both included in SP2, but only install (1) when
the appropriate hardware is available and with (in this case) the Tablet PC
existing OEM product ID recognized.
