Vista SP1 finally seems to be coming
A lot of people have been wanting to know when the first service pack for Windows Vista would be released. As seems to be typical of the company these days, Microsoft has danced around with contradictory hints and posts keeping everybody in the dark as to whether there would even be a service pack. Now, it finally seems that a definite date for a beta SP1 has been set for late this year. But the information comes not from Microsoft but from the US Department of Justice. Computerworld reports:
Tucked into the government’s 27-page joint status settlement report (download PDF) released late Tuesday was evidence that Microsoft will put the beta of Vista SP1 into users’ hands before the end of the year. The report also confirmed Windows XP SP3, but did not specify beta or final release dates, although it said some code would be finalized this summer.
Microsoft has been loath to talk about either service pack, but has been particularly mum about Windows Vista SP1, a widely anticipated bug update that some enterprise users are waiting on before deploying the new operating system.
