There *may* be some techimo members who are technet subscribers who might be hosting their own ftp servers that just might happen to have SP1 on there. Said member(s) may be kind enough to give other TIMO members access if he/she/they receive a PM request.

Just a thought.

well I got it from technet but it made my vista copy not legal,

I had it activated when I installed SP1, after install it said vista needed to be activated, now it will not activate, says this product key is already in use, (ya on this computer you puts )

so now I'm going to try to uninstall SP1 and get my legal copy of vista back, or I may have to do a fresh install, again

In mid-March, we will release Windows Vista SP1 to Windows Update

In mid-April, we will begin delivering Windows Vista SP1 to Windows Vista customers who have chosen to have updates downloaded automatically.

That' s a wait time I can live with. Aside from the slow file copy, I'm very pleased with Vista. It's been over a week since my upgrade from Xp Pro to Vista Premium Home Edition 64-bit, and I'm loving it!

Well, today is March 18th. Have to go into work pretty soon. Was hoping to wake up to see an alert from Microsoft on my computer. Will check again when I get home.

Went to the microsoft product release here in boston . Got vista ultimate w/ service pack 1 for FREE! SCORE. Got visual studios, server 2k8 and mssql server 2k8 all free too. Oh yea. The conference sucked. I stayed just long enough to get my software and then ran!

-Kevin

/edit...my point was...it's out....they're giving away vista ultimate with sp1 already installed to those at the release
