Windows spent most of this time downloading the Service Pack , it took around 30 minutes to download it.And the installation process it tooked only 15 minutes.

I held back by one day or so on downloading/installing SP1 due to the problems some people were having with CIS 5.3, but have now since gone ahead and done it. Was a painless update which took about 30 minutes for the 64 Bit edition of Windows 7.

SP1 adds almost nothing for most of us: http://windowssecrets.com/2011/02/24/01-What-you-need-to-know-about-Windows-7-SP1

Oh well...I wouldn't know what MS should add anyway. Windows 7 just works.

True, especially if you do Windows Updates regularly.

 

[idontlikemalware]

Everything went well.

 

[Watasha]

Nice, just updated.

I updated yesterday and haven't seen any problems... yet.
But there's still plenty of time for that.
