Windows Vista SP1 Final Scorecard

Feb. 6, 2008 Paul Thurrott | Paul Thurrott's Supersite for Windows

Someone sent me what looks like an internal Microsoft document that contains, among other things, the following graphic. This is allegedly evidence that SP1 is ready for prime time (despite my own questions about that). And sure enough, there are 0 active blocking bugs, so it must be done. :)

I also enjoy the "greater than" buttons. (i.e. "reliability of SP1 is greater than RTM!"). Good stuff.

Discuss this Article 3

love these geeky graphs. by the way, i noticed there a button named "slipstream success". i previously read that slipstreaming won't be available for WiVi. or am i wrong? because i guess it was stated here and i believe here, that slipstreaming won't be supported by microsoft.

Being in science and dealing with quality criterias, I would think that > RTM means that the build exceeds the specs defined for a RTM version. No ??

Umm... the "slipstream" builds provided by Microsoft are not slipstreamed. They are simply the client build of Windows Server 2008.
