is there any difference between the sp2 release available for download for
IT dvelopers and the one coming for release from the windows update for home
users?
 
Greetings --

The SP2 download provided for IT professionals is much larger than
the download that will be needed for home users via WindowsUpdate.
This is because the "IT" download includes all of the files needed to
update all of the various versions of WinXP, while WindowsUpdate will
need to provide only those files needed for each individual's specific
installation.

Hi

No, only the download size as the Windows Update version only
downloads the updates needed for that specific computer while
the "IT developers" version contains all SP2 files to be able
to install on a "whatever" computer.

Both methods will install only the updated components that apply
to your system, the only difference is the initial download size.
