ED#106 : Windows Vista Service Pack 2’s Latest Release Schedule

Dashken · 23rd Nov 2008, 03:51 AM

We have news of the upcoming Service Pack 2 for Windows Vista! Microsoft is doing their best to rush out Service Pack 2 for Windows Vista so there will be additional incentive for folks to upgrade to Window Vista now, instead of waiting for Windows 7. So the latest schedule should come as no surprise.

Hopefully it will be possible to download SP2 on the same date as RTM since that was the case too with SP1.

I hope they put in some optimizations and performance increases!

If you know where to look, you may even get a copy before the official RTM date.

I don't think so.

Would that be a copy of the RC or RTM? I would prefer to wait for a finished product.

It's the same thing. RTM is released to manufacturers first, like what the name suggest. I mean whether it's released to manufacturer first or public.

I know, with finished product I meant the RTM release. Changes can still be made with the RC right?

Both RC and RTM. So watch out for "fake" RTM binaries that claim to be the actual RTM binary. We will try to get more details (i.e. file size, etc.) of the RC and RTM binaries as we get closer to their respective release dates.
