Basically its just a collection of windows updates rolled into one, no big changes.
apparently it CANT be slipstreamed. MS dont like it, because it provides a legal excuse for burned copies of their OS.
There is a readme if you go to the dl link and go from there and it is weak to say the least... Just what Triprift said, a bunch of updates rolled into a Service Pack...
I got an SP1 setup disc off my mate who had bought the software.
I own the software legit, but dear god its a pain in the ass to install an SP0 DVD, and then install two service packs. adds another hour to the install process, if not more.
Ill agree to disagree right off :laugh:
Nothing personal.
I don't understand why TheMailMan78 has such a problem with you downloading this. After all, it's the product key that counts, no? You have paid for it, so you have the right to have the latest install disc, whether Microsoft makes getting this difficult or not.
edit : the leaked RTM has the additional language that's why its bigger
