After months of leaks and speculation, Microsoft is finally ready to talk about Windows Vista Service Pack 1 (SP1). Nick White, a product manager for Microsoft, posted today on the Windows Vista Team Blog that Vista SP1 will be released during the first quarter of 2008.
since i got my faster pc and press-ganged into vistaPremium, and had to learn it, i am now converted from Luddite to Fan,
Vista is far better than xp and much more userfriendly,
from clean install to personalised has been an easy transition compared to xp,
much less nagging in vista much simpler to customise, easier to control and feels much safer and secure in fact a pleasure to use, although on my old slow pc, vista is still a nuisance and a drag...
so that is my tip for vista, wait til you have a fast computer and you will love it in about a week and a half :)

--Extend Activation (i hear)
'Are you testing out Vista's features and compatibility but not sure if you want to go ahead and activate it? Microsoft understands. It has built a software licensing manager into the new OS that lets you extend the activation period. At the Start menu's search bar, simply type slmgr -rearm to get another 30 days. You can do this a maximum of three times before Microsoft blocks further extension periods'
Hack Available to Download the Official Vista SP1
That's right! There is a hack available that will permit you to access, download and install the official release of Windows Vista Service Pack 1 straight from Microsoft. The first service pack for Vista was initially released in pre-beta stage in mid July 2007, concomitantly with the original preview of Windows XP Service Pack 3. Microsoft subsequently dropped another pre-beta version of Vista SP1 in August and revealed that the first fully-fledged beta for the service pack would be delivered by the end of September. And the fact of the matter is that in the last week of the past month, the beta of Windows Vista SP1 Build 6001.16659 was open to in excess of 12,000 testers.
