Since my last post about Vista I actually found out that three people I know admit they use it. I have heard from some that Vista is more comfortable for those who are used to working on an Apple computer. I have also heard from people that the file structure in Vista is very similar to a linux machine. Of course, I do not know these things for myself because after 15 minutes using Vista, I formatted the hard drive and installed XP on my computer when I got it.

Windows Vista customers can now receive the first service pack for the operating system via the Microsoft Automatic Update service, Microsoft said Wednesday.

Windows Vista Service Pack 1 will download automatically to PCs that have the automatic update feature of the OS turned on, the company said. Previously, Vista was available to customers via Windows Update, but people had to specifically download it.

Not all customers will receive SP1 immediately via Automatic Update, however. The company is distributing it in phases to “ensure a seamless download experience,” Microsoft said. A timeline for when all customers would receive Vista SP1 via Automatic Update was not immediately available.

So, this means the automatic updates aren’t yet quite so automatic right? If Microsoft was starting today as a small business opportunity, it would never make it. We wouldn’t want to overload the servers with all those Vista users out there. Seriously, how many people use Vista? Raise your hand if you’re sure.
