Update on SP1 for Windows 7 and Windows 2008 R2 Availability

Hi all,

Service Pack 1 for Windows 7 and Windows 2008 R2 has released to manufacture. This means the code is final and in the process of being disseminated to our customers. The dates for availability are:

February 9: OEMs and SP1 TAP participants

February 16: Technet\MSDN Subscribers and Volume Licensing customers

February 22: General availability via Download Center and Windows Update

Service Pack 1 is of course a rollup of many previous patches and tweaks, and a couple of new features: Dynamic Memory and RemoteFX. Read more about it on the Windows Server blog:
