Windows Vista SP1 Update

Windows Vista SP1 availability for technical customers

The Windows Vista Team is going to make SP1 available to customers in stages to make sure we delivered a great experience.

Beta Testers have had a number of driver issues....We are working with the manufacturers of these devices to get the drivers and their install programs updated, and also working on other solutions we can use to ensure a smooth customer experience when updating to SP1 over Windows Update.- Mike Nash

Undervalues Yahoo!
