Office 2003 Service Pack 2 on CD

[Brandon Moses]

I would like to know how long the process takes before Office 2003 Service
Pack 2 will be available to order on cdrom, any ideas? Thanks.

Of course SP1 is still available here:

Hi, Brandon,

It generally takes about 30 days to package the service packs on a CD once
all of the packages are live. Then it takes roughly another 30 days for the
CD to begin shipping. I'm guessing the last of the SP2 packages will be
live this month, so the CD wouldn't be released until the end of November at
the earliest. However, with that beginning the holiday season, it will
likely take longer, so you might not be able to get the CD until January.

Seems like a long time...
