problems.
Nero didn't like it and needed an update but that's all so far. Absolutely
no problems with either internal SBS-domain-type working or even with remote
VPN into our office.
Just my own experience. I'd recommend getting SP2 onto those desktops anyway
and working round any issues as per the other advice.
