While flashing your BIOS does make Windows want you to reactivate it's a relatively painless process. Just activate it or call them up and get the code.
service pack 1 is supposed to be comming out tomorrow on windows update. I was wondering if the update size will be smaller if you have gotten all the updates prior to the service pack. I don't really want to have to dl the full update which is over a gig on my dialup
Microsoft has talked about offering the Vista with SP1 disc to users by snail mail. But sadly there has been no talk of just the SP on disc.
Yes it sucks for Dial up but it is not as bad as downloading all of Vista...
I'm tempted to download it here because microsoft's servers are usually pretty fast but if that fails I am getting 1.5mbps wireless internet on the 28th I think
