Unfortunately, 'XP2' is coming into the game late while the world has been watching serious security efforts being made for a considerably longer time on other operating systems. While it is a good thing that Microsoft is now coming to the table with serious security enhancements, it's unfortunate that they have to break their own products to do so. With the resources available to Microsoft, both in manpower and finances, you would think that they would be able to put forward a better solution than 'this is going to break some things, but it's really for your own good'. This is a bad way to keep your customer base happy and makes it seem that they're only sending out 'XP2' to shut people up.
