    "RTM" means "Release to Manufacturing". It's generally the first publicly available version of the software. You can and should apply service pack 4 to it if you intend to use keep using SQL 2000. It's the latest service pack and the only one still available.

    I've never heard that it's a bad idea to apply SPs to RTM releases. How else would it get beyond RTM?
