Question Windows XP Service Pack download - it it worth it

Hello all , and thanks in advance for advice.

I have just bought this beauty, and it is strictly for a bit of PPRuNing, emailing ie home use and fairly low level use at that.

On my travels round the computer, MSN invited me to download a 'vital' set of downloads (Windows XP service pack 1) which i i did and it said it was going to take 4 hours or so. I am on 56k dia-up connection and have had no problems downloading other programs.

My questions - Do i need this? Does it take up masses of space? What are the advantages?
