Vista SP1 RC for Public Release

by Milo on December 6th, 2007

Right now Vista SP1 RC is only available via the Microsoft connect site. Microsoft announced that the release candidate is going to be made available to the public sometime next week.

The enhancements highlights include:

1. BitLocker Drive Encryption (BDE)
2. Additional support for upcoming standards and hardware namely: Direct3D 10.1, Secure Sockets Tunneling Protocol (SSTP), Extensible Firmware Interface (EFI), and the Extended File Allocation Table (exFAT), a file system for Flash drives.
3. Support for Secure Digital (SD) Advanced Direct Memory Access (DMA)

If they do release the RC version next week, then their promise of delivering Windows Vista Service Pack 1 on the first quarter of 2008 may actually happen.
