The Windows client team has been <A HREF="http://blogs.zdnet.com/microsoft/?p=1360&tag=nl.e589">pushing out service packs, a new feature pack, and Ultimate Extra add-ons</A> for Vista over the past few days--to varying degrees of customer satisfaction.
On April 23, Microsoft began rolling out via its Automatic Update mechanism SP1 for Windows Vista. According to a posting on the Windows Vista Team Blog by Windows Client Communications Team Director Chris Flores:
"Over the next few months Microsoft will automatically distribute Windows Vista SP1 to PCs that have automatic updates turned on and running English, French, German, Spanish, or Japanese via Windows Update. Automatic distribution will only occur, according to user settings, on PCs ready for SP1. After Windows Vista SP1 downloads, WU will let you know that new updates are available. You'll then be asked to make a few clicks before the installation of SP1 will begin."
