Well…. Microsoft released Service Pack 1 today… For those that have been keeping up to date and using the automatic update feature of Windows 7 – there should be very little to update. The good thing about this is that if you use the Automatic update, the Service pack will only update the items that you have not installed over the last year.
Similar to other Service Packs – there are very few items that are new, no real new features but a few bug fixes. The nice thing about this for those that install WIN7 often, or like to do clean installs – this will make the hundreds of updates a lot quicker.
You can just go to Windows update and tell it to update or you can go to the Windows update web page to download it yourself.
