Vista SP1
Vista Service Pack 1 has been released to manufacturing and will be available in mid-March for most customers. I’m looking forward to testing it. I have not been able to find a comprehensive list of the issues addressed, but they are generally believed to be largely around performance and reliability. Of course, various updates over the last year have already significantly improved the performance of Vista, so I am curious to see if there will be any more improvements on fully patched systems.
One thing we do know is that SP1 will remove the Group Policy Management Console from the default Vista install. In order to get it back, you will need to install the upcoming Remote Server Administration Tools (RSAT). In the meantime, you will be unable to run the QGPM service on a Vista SP1 box. But you wouldn’t want to do that anyway, right?
