Vista SP 1 & Why you should install it!

Because, it works! Read on, only if you want more reasons...

Just day before yesterday, we had the largest IT Pro launch in Microsoft’s history! And the general consensus of everyone who attended the was that it was A1-Awesome! Now, that's not a good enough reason for you to use Windows Vista SP1 but if you did attend yesterdays launch you definitely received a NFR copy of Windows Vista Ultimate with SP1 in your attendee bag! And, here's why you need to use it...

Windows Vista with Service Pack 1 (SP1) and the entire PC ecosystem are substantially more compatible, reliable, and even more secure than just 12 months ago. Device driver coverage is up 2x vs. launch (over 78,000 drivers on Windows Update) and the number of certified apps is up 10x (over 2,600 logo’d applications). In fact, 98 of the top 100 commercial apps are certified to work with Vista. And during the first six months on the market, Vista had fewer critical security vulnerabilities than any other desktop OS that we’re aware of (including Mac and Windows XP). If that's not good enough, we are guaranteeing a smile on your face when you use Vista with SP1 on your machine! :)
