"The wait is nearly over for the first service pack for Windows Vista, according to sources close to Microsoft. Microsoft has said the highly anticipated service pack would be out in the first quarter of this year, but some say it could be available in the next few weeks, more than a month before the quarter ends on March 31." That's what PCWorld says anyway, BetaNews thinks it will arrive in March. A new build has been released, in any case.

SP1 installed itself on my machine 2 nights ago. If it's a beta, it didn't let me know. Actually, I resisted installing it for a week or so, but the other day I ran a few errands, and when I got back, I was looking at the log-in screen. When I checked the Windows Update history, SP1 was there, along with a few other updates.
Have you messed with the Windows Update settings in any way or previously installed it? In addition, what version are you using?
I'm using a standard off-the-shelf version of Vista Business 32, and the only update I've got in a few days is an update to the Windows Mail junk mail filters (and the only reason I got that is because I haven't bothered to uninstall Windows Mail). Unless you're using a very different version of Vista than I am (corporate, maybe?), we should have almost identical updates...
