Microsoft should make SP2 available to all users and backport the changes to older operating systems, or they risk putting profits ahead of security yet again.

i would like to disagree with you where you say MS should backport these changes to older OS's.
why?
I think MS have made a very good move in terms of self-image and security in bringing SP2 out - i dont see why they should spend a lot more time + money on backporting these features to win2k and less.. those users should upgrade to XP or longhorn (when it arrives)
on a side note i DO think MS should reduce the price of the upgrade to XP because of how old XP is now - this would encourage a lot of business to upgrade and reap the security benifits.
cheers
