Microsoft already planning Vista service pack SP1

“We expect Windows Vista SP1 to be a standard service pack that will include security updates and hot fixes, as well as limited other changes focused on improving overall quality,” the representative said. Microsoft said it was “too early to provide any firm date range” for SP1, but said, “In general, we expect the first service pack for Windows Vista to be released in a timeframe similar to that of service packs for previous versions of Windows.”
