Requirements Checklist for Choosing a Cloud Backup and Recovery Service Provider

Microsoft has put back the release to manufacture of Windows 2000 Service Pack 1. Originally due earlier this week, the monstro 83MB patch is now scheduled for release on 24 July and should be available for web download a few days later.

The software giant is keeping mum on the actual causes of the delay, but the word on the street seems to point to some kind of security issue. ®
