Today I received KB936330 Vista SP1 Beta through the Vista automatic update
feature. In reading the instructions to KB936330 it says I need to
uninstall this update before I install the final version of Vista SP1. My
question is why is Microsoft pushing this out thru the automatic update
feature when the final version of SP1 is coming on 18 April. Why would I
install this download and in 3 weeks go thru the hassle of uninstalling it
so I can install the final version. Makes so damn sense to me..

KB936330 is the final version of SP1. It is not beta.

If this not Beta then why in the hell does the instructions to KB936330 tell
me I have to uninstall this install when the final SP1 is released to auto
update on 18 April. The instructions specifically states "before you
install the final release of Windows SP1 you must uninstall KB936330."
