So, after a long refreshing weekend, I”m back, and over the course of that weekend something interesting happened.
Service Pack 2 for Server 2008 and Vista was officially released. Now you might say, “Its only a service pack, what is the big deal?” The truth is, especially in this day and age, any Service Pack is a big deal. Not only does it roll up security updates that had been previously released, but it usually also has bug fixes, some new features, and a few other goodies inside it, plus it lays the groundwork for what is to come.
Especially with Vista, the Service Pack is a major thing. I have not read the release notes on it yet, but have heard that it does address a bunch of issues with Vista. I seriously recommend downloading it and testing it on non-production machines first though.
