The time is arrived... 
The new XP Service Pack 2 Final Release is ready on the Windows Beta site. If you want to test, the package has the name WindowsXP-KB835935-SP2-ENU.exe (266.01 Mb).
Good luck!
I want to report here some recommendatiosn that comes from the Windows Beta Team:
Final testing is complete and at 10:08am this morning we signed off on build 2180 as Windows XP Service Pack 2, releasing it to manufacturing. The final build will be available to beta sites immediately at http://windowsbeta.microsoft.com/download/dl3.asp. You will find both English and German versions there, Japanese will follow early next week.
Next week the service pack will be available on the Microsoft Download Center for general download. In the interim we're making the update available to you via the beta web site.
If you are running RC2, or any other build released to beta sites, we invite you to turn on Automatic Updates, and starting on August 10th your system will automatically download the express version of Windows XP SP2. For typical home users this is about a 75 MB download; for those on RC2 it should be less than 30 MB. As soon as the background download is complete, you will be prompted to install SP2 and to accept the EULA (SP2 does not install automatically even if Automatic Updates is set to automatically install security updates). If you have a modem connection, don't "Cancel" the update once it's in progress; just disconnect and when you reconnect later, it will automatcially pick up where it left off until it completes.
This was my last day of work... now the summer holidays that I was waiting for a lot of time are coming and tomorrow I'll start for a week in the south of Italy (Vieste).
I hope to have a good week, with a total relax (my activities will be only sleeping, swimming and running)!
Obviously, my pc will be turned off in these days... it's holiday time also for it! ;)
Have a nice holidays (if someone of us will be on holiday, obviously!)!
I'm a big fan of eBooks, expecialy if they're available for free 
and the new “Essential XML Quick Reference” by Aaron Skonnard & Martin Gudgin seems really interesting.
It's available for free on TheServerSide.NET and it's recommended for every type of XML-related technical questions (it has a lot of good examples).
