Microsoft to Release SP1 for Vista

It's been 8 months and there hasn't been 1 service pack. So where do you see "weeks" and "service packs over service packs"?

 

Service pack for Vista comes out around October/November according to Intel.

I'm not trusting vista for another year...It is still incompatible with a lot of the programs I use

 

Just as Seo Ranter I'll give it at least one year and another service pack (Sp2)
It is also too expensive.

 

I guess Microsoft will have to wait a year before it makes money on Vista.

 

If service pack 1 come out, I will seriously consider upgrading to Vista from XP.

 

yes , btw i installed Vista , you can't belive how many problems during installation i had , and i have now bouth Vista and XP but i used Vista only for 30 minutes didnt like it at all and it is slower than XP so i woud recomend for you guys definitely wait for SP1or SP2

 

Vista is such a gimmick of an Operating System. Microsoft need to realise that they need to make products that are usable, backwards compatible & stable. But noo they decide to make products that are slow, and virus prone. This Service pack will probably create more problems than solve. If anybody's thinking of upgrading i'd suggest waiting out another year for 1 more service pack then at least you can be sure there won't be as many problems and compatibility with software you use would be there. Also you can save up and build a monster machine to run this resource hungry piece of **** operating system.

Anywhoo Its all bout Apple I'm gunna get an Apple soon

 

I've skimmed this thread, does anyone know if there are any new features in Vista SP1 or if it's all just security and bug fixes?

 

The service pack will include all fixes that have already been released plus a few extra ones. There is the performance fixes as well as the compatibility fixes. So for the average user who has been doing updates it'll be about 50mb to download. If you download it without any updates previously probably 1gb (includes all languages as well)

 

I hope Microsoft gets it by now that we want and OS that does not hog up all our resources. We do that all by ourselves.

 

5 years? You kidding right.

The way the technology is improving, 5 years will be more like 20 years or so.

I remember I bought a P4 in 2002 and now its completely useless.

 

SP1 I can't believe it vista was already out about a few months ago Wonder what SP1 will bring to vista

 

All SP1 will bring to the end user is more requirements to be able to run it. It will now require 2gigs of memory and an HD-DVD or Blue ray player to run it.

 

I hope they will release SP3 for WinXP too.

 

There suppose to come out at the same time SP3 for Windows XP and SP1 for Vista.

 

why is it taking so long to come out? end of the year...

 

Microsoft needs to test it's service packs first. Hence, the beta releases.

 

obviously, and they do use a large number of beta before releases.

 

ti be honest with you i have never had a problem with vista but with compatiability and hardware, but as with any software, upgrades are a must.
