JOY'S DEN: Windows Vista : SP2

Microsoft was claiming big while releasing the Vista.

New technology in Windows Vista makes your PC significantly more responsive while you are performing everyday tasks. Improved

startup and sleep behavior helps both desktop and mobile PCs get up and running more quickly. Greater efficiency in managing both memory devices and input/output (I/O) devices

helps your programs run more smoothly and consistently. And as your computer ages, a

number of features in Windows Vista work together to help keep it as responsive as the day it arrived.

But unfortunately as per my experience with Vista Home Premiu

m and Ultimate is concern; I am quite unhappy with the system boot up, memory management and responsiveness of the OS. The security features and inbuilt admin tools are great innovation. And also the graphics (aero specially) were ultimate though this is one of the big reason for this version of windows to become a big flop.

After a long long wait the SP2 is released on 25.05.2009.

The download size is approximately 340 MB and with a 1-2 MBPS connectivity it should not take more than 1.5 - 2 hours to download and install

the SP.

SP2 is easy to manage as it comes with bundle o

f Vista sp2 and windows server 2008 sp2. As per my research SP2 would definately help to improve the system performance to some extent. Definately recommended from myside !!
