Vista SP1 beta due in two weeks

mimo2005 · 08-29-2007, 08:18 PM

Vista SP1 will go to about 10,000 to 15,000 selected beta testers by mid-September, officials said. The SP1 beta build will be made available to these testers for download form the Microsoft Connect site. A broader public beta of SP1 is likely around the time Microsoft delivers a release-candidate test build of the service pack, officials said, while declining to provide a timeframe for that build. The final “gold” release of SP1 is now slated for some time in Q1 2008.

Is there any info about the stable SP1?

nice,

have you got a location from where you will download it from?

Is there any info about the location on the Vista SP1 or will it just come into Windows updates?
