Vista SP1 now available for download
Not a few days after Vista SP1 went RTM it’s showing up online. But not from Microsoft, that would be too easy. A number of third party download sites have the final version of Vista SP1 available for download. The company will probably take a dim view of this but they’re going to release it anyway but it’s still one of those “gray” areas.
Microsoft won’t be making the “official” final version of Vista SP1 available to the public until Mid-march. Most of us would agree we have languished with Vista’s problems for long enough. Vista SP1 is finished, Microsoft is trying to sell some propaganda about not making it available it but its smoke and mirrors. The service pack is finished. Let us have it.
But they’re not. And since they’re not, PCWorld found several Bittorrent sites have the final build of Vista SP1 for your installation pleasure. Of course, this probably does fall more on the “wrong side” of the law than the “right” side. If that won’t bother you, then feel free to fire up your torrent client and search for it. But, you might risk getting an angry letter from Microsoft’s legal department.
If you’re still running one of the beta versions of SP1 you will have to manually uninstall it because the final version has no automatic method for dealing with the uninstall procedure for an older version of itself. Whatever, Microsoft, just release the service pack already so we aren’t “breaking” the law just to fix your broken operating system.
