Wonder how having the beta SP1 installed prior changes things? I understand you have to uninstall that first, which kinda freaks me out.
How many others have gone through that particular process?

So, the more up to date you are, the smaller the download for SP1. From: Michael B. Smith [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, February 22, 2011 5:26 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Windows 7/2008R2 SP1 available I don't understand how that's possible (although I've noticed that). Even if you multiple that by 6, you only get (rounding up) 500 MB, instead of the 1.3 GB of the "full archive" download. Weird. Regards, Michael B.

Still, what's a 500gb download times 300 million copies ... I'm sure when it gets on Windows Update it will be a lot smaller.
