I've seen no problems at all except.... it SEEMS to make systems prone
to blue-screen at boot time if they have a dongle on the parallel port,
daisy-chained to a parallel port zip drive. This seems to happen on about
10% of reboots. Rebooting again generally clears the problem.
This may not even be SP5's fault, a newer rev of the iomega tools are
involved as well, but it does seem to be happening far more often.
