      Microsoft has finally released the much anticipated Service Pack 1 for Windows Vista. Although its not “publicly” available for download from Microsoft yet, it can be found online at various other places. I’ve installed the service pack on both a desktop and a laptop now and I’m well pleased with it. Its worth installing simply for the annoying “slow file copy” bug fix which is included. Hurray!! Of course, there is a whole lot of other fixes included as well.

Check out these screenshots.

    Haven’t Vista SP1 torrents been online for several months now? Maybe I’m kidding myself and they were just development builds.

    Yea, they were just development builds. I had actually installed some of those as well.

    Ok, I might have to give it a spin in VMWare. XP SP3 seems to have some potential as well.

    XP SP3 is still prerelease, right? I haven’t been keeping track of XP SP3 a whole lot since I don’t even have a XP machine anymore.

    As far as I know. I test ran it a few months ago inside VMWare.
