Vista Service Pack 1 Beta Suspension

A couple of day ago, I read on http://www.betanews.com that microsoft
suspended the beta program due
to problem reported to the newsgroups. Well, does that mean that we won't
get SP1 at all now?
I was wondering.

Yes, we all will. You can read more about the deployment schedule for the

Thanks Ken. That is what I thought.
Waiting on March then. It will be in a couple of weeks.

SP1 RTM is here already and available to OEMs and to Technet subscribers.

Supposedly it is not available widely through Windows Update, although there
seems to be a registry fix that will trigger Windows Update to download and
install SP1.

Also, it *seems* that users of x64 Windows Vista as of today are now getting
the update through Windows Update, although this is not confirmed as yet.
