    Our company firewall reported that a 500 Mb+ downloaded occured last
    night.
    Of course my curiousity was raised and LO & Behold our SUS server
    suddenly contained the service packs 1a for XP & servicepack 4 for
    Win2k.
    As we have both Dutch & English clients we got both language versions,
    bringing it to the aforementioned size of the download.
    Anyways, I wasn't noticed by M$ in advance they were changing their
    policy. As the servicepacks size has an impact on the available
    diskspace, it would have been nice.

    But for those peeps using sus & haven't run their updates: brace
    yourselves

    Cheers,
