• One year later: Where are the killer Vista apps?
  After a year, Mary Jo asks the same question. Could it be that the answer is ‘There aren’t any’? It’s not suprising that business isn’t pushing hard to adopt Vista, there currently are few good reasons to upgrade, but for some, many reasons not to.

The Microsoft Security Response Center today announced what to expect in the December 2007 Security Bulletin, due next Tuesday ‘at or around 10 a.m. Pacific Time’. Included in the Security updates are six for Windows and 1 for IE. There will also be non-security updates released, which will include 6 released through Microsoft Update (likely non-Windows related), and 1 through Windows Update (likely Windows related).

I suspect at least two (one for Windows Vista, one for IE7) will be related to the vulnerability announced earlier this week. Outside of that, it’s hard to tell how many will affect Vist, as in the past many that do relate to XP or 2003 are not issues in Vista. So, we don’t know how much to expect, but using a term that’s become popular recently, get ready to receive some ‘bits’ on Tuesday!

Today we’re making available the release candidate (RC) of Windows Vista SP1 via Microsoft Connect, and tomorrow subscribers to TechNet and MDSN will have access to those RC bits too. In addition, the RC will be available to the public next week via Microsoft’s Download Center. The release candidate phase of beta software is typically the final phase before the RTM (release-to-manufacturing) of a product and indicates that the code has attained a significant level of performance and stability.

Let me call out several changes made since the Beta release of Service Pack 1 — many of which came about as a result of direct feedback from our Beta-testing community (thank you!):

• The size of the standalone installers have decreased significantly. For example, the standalone installer packages consisting of all 36 languages (x86 and x64 chip architectures) are smaller by over 50%. The standalone installer packages consisting of just the 5 languages (again, x86 and x64) slated for initial release are more than 30% smaller in size.
• The required amount of disc space for SP1 installation has also decreased significantly. Furthermore, with the RC, if more space is required to install SP1, an error message will now display exactly
