Apparently I am the only one. I'll just wait for an official download to become available. I'm not having any issues with Windows 7 that I am anxious for this to fix...so am not in a hurry to get it.

When all you front runners finish with it let us "official" waiters know what you think? Not that I'm not going to install it anyway, just gonna wait till the official release hits Windows Update.
too bad, i know and i also thought that it will be some performance improvements but not at all
maybe even little more slow with sp1 , they should have made the pc faster with 20% after installed sp1 but not
You might see a difference in performance if you install SP1 from a fresh windows install vs one that already has 250 MB of downloaded updates, but otherwise anything you add to a computer will usually slow it down

I have a question about a fresh install of Windows 7 and SP1.
1) A recent update (KB976902) is required to install SP's.
2) Windows 7 has to be validated as Genuine.
So I assume after installing Windows 7 you need to go online and register and then validate. Then find KB976902 update and install. Then install SP1. After that run update again to find the rest of the updates.
I am curios about slip-streaming SP1 into Windows 7 disk and if KB976902 or lack of gets in the way.
Just looking ahead.
