What is the verdict on Service pack 4 for win2k?

I seen more reports of problems that I would like.
Users of autocad and maya have reported serious
problems with file corruption.

I'm also a bit supersticous about version 4 of Microsoft
products. I recall the file corrupting bugs in DOS 4.0,
the flakeyness of DOS 4.01. NT service pack 4. IE version4.0

I expect some of you have installed sp4 and have been
running it for a while. Has it broken any of your software?
Does it seem stable?

Fine so far. Not like my SP3 experiance (horrible, crashy).

There are reported problems, but none of which affect me:

(Btw, my current install was fresh, a slipstream made when SP4 was first released. Service packs are my excuse to clean house.)

Been fine for me, even fixed a few aspects of the OS I had tweaked and did minimal damage to.

Overall I didn't see a huge difference but nothing negative from me to say.
