Microsoft has scheduled Windows Vista Service Pack 1 for release to manufacturer (RTM) on Monday, February 4, 2008. That's just 3 days away! The OEMs will also receive Windows Vista Service Pack 1 during that week.

Microsoft will be deploying Service Pack 1 in two "waves". Wave 0, which is the one released on February 4, will only include five languages - English, French, Spanish, German and Japanese. The second wave, Wave 1, is scheduled for release 1-2 weeks later, and will cover all 36 basic languages, including Chinese.

Where do you see the exact build? Mine says: Version 6.0 (Build 6001: Service Pack 1, v.668).

The shortcut on the desktop or leaving beta feedback leads me to believe that this download is indeed a beta and not the real deal.

oops sorry the microsoft link is the RC not the real thing yet, but u can get the real thing on torents, but some say that was the refresh 2 of RC that microsoft send to very few  ppl and that also doesnt  have time limit and  ver num on desktop, thus maybe that was the unofficial rtm and same will get gold without any difference in few days
