Microsoft aiming to deliver Vista SP2 before Windows 7

Mary Jo Foley: The Windows team is readying second service packs (SP2) for Vista — and for its server complement, Windows Server 2008 — and is aiming to deliver these SP2s before it releases Windows 7, according to my sources.

hopefully it will sort out some of the slower copy speeds. I know they sort of fixed it in sp1, but its still pretty slow compared to xp.

We might even see some new bits from windows 7 like the improved paint & wordpad programs hopefully

Your sig is funny, lol.

Agreed on the x-fer times. I do wish they were faster. I do like that paint saves in JPEG format by default now. Great for screen shots.
