Vista SP1 beta 1 to launch in mid-July | |
|

| Time: 00:28 EST/05:28 GMT | News Source: ZDNet | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum | ||

It’s official: We are now in the under-promise and over-deliver era at Microsoft. Just when Microsoft had customers, partners and competitors all believing that it was going to delay the first service pack for Vista — not releasing a first beta of it until just before year-end — the company is set to deliver Beta 1 of Vista SP1 in mid-July. Word (from various sources who asked not to be named) is Microsoft is gearing up to drop Vista SP1 some time the week of July 16. And despite what Microsoft seemingly led Google, the U.S. Department of Justice and other company watchers to believe, the final version of Vista SP1 is sounding like November 2007. | ||

| Vista is complex compared to XP. At this time no one knows how many betas it will take to get SP1 fine tuned so that when it released to the general public it doesn't break many systems. An end of the year release is still quite reasonable and welcome. There is a psychological element to this action in that Vista's SP1 makes Windows XP suddenly seem out of date. |

XP may be out of date, but at least all my stuff works right :)
We'll give Vista another try when SP1 is final and ready. TL |

TechLarry - What doesn't work right with Vista?

High-End hardware, file copy performance, access to certain https sites, etc...
You know the list by now. Everyone does... TL |
