Is that it? all that time updating it for nothing then

I thought they would of gave it abit of facelift atleast

It mainly consists of all the updates to sp2 in one package plus a couple of minor tweaks. Thwere are no new features.

they say sp3 uses less ram usage rather than sp2. and less space etc thats about it.

I'm pretty sure I downloaded SP1 via Windows Update a while back.
I was hearing recently about a SP2 soon to come for Vista.

Posted by jcwhite_uk
Vista SP2 coming soon? I seriously doubt it as SP1 was only released 2 months ago. Last I heard SP2 might be released about late 2009.

Posted by Xugaa
Hmm ok, I agree.

But yeah, SP1 has been out for a while now.
