Yesterday, Microsoft announced the first details for the next service pack for Windows Vista. I’m on the Beta, so hopefully I’ll get my build in the next week or so… if I’m allowed to talk about it, I’ll post details.
Anyways, one of the things I was the most excited about was not the enhanced Wireless features (although I’m hoping that it solves some problems I’ve been having with my Linksys WRT610N (though more on that fiasco later)… no, I’m most excited about the fact that, due to the massive engineering change that Microsoft undertook in aligning the client and server codebases, there will be one Service Pack 2 download that will work on both Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008. Will it bring Hyper-V to the client? Will it bring Windows Media Center up to date with the TV Pack bits? I’m not sure… but maybe during my Windows 7 briefings this week I can dig up some answers.
