    r2 is security updates to r1. If your machine is going to be connected
    the internet or a large network, I would recommend using r2. However,
    you don't have to buy the cds; you can upgrade over the internet. If you
    have a dialup modem though, yea, you'll probably want to get r2 on CDs.

    HTH,
