My rig has been working pretty great up till now. I see that my computer has downloaded Service Pack 1. Has anyone else updated it? What were your results?

I updated, and it worked on both my computer and laptop. I'm not sure what else to say about it.

It works.  It even seems to have activated my copy of windows 7 after maybe 9 months of it refusing to do so.

Working fine here.  Not really noticing any improvements or drawbacks.

<+Karrde> welp, time to learn some basic patterning skills
<@Negate> 12121212121212121212
<@Negate> there is a simple pattern
<+Karrde> I changed my mind.  Gonna cosplay as a gay demon from hell and get negate raped instead XD
<+Caffeine`work> Karrde: Gay demon? Why would you need to cosplay just go as yourself
<+FlyingMongoose> Caffeine`work: Karrde would actually have to tone it down some.

Some brief notes from microsoft on it... nothing to much for everyday users. Takes 5-20 min to do install since restart is required.

They don't introduce anything immensely huge or new in SP's, they're just a update that combines all prior updates into one, maybe adding a few little features in that would normally be a simple little KB###### update. This time it was printing from the XPS Viewer, a function they put in for explorer folders that was there in every version of Windows up to 7 but they took out for some reason, and an update for HDMI audio so it doesn't crash under certain circumstances.

I ran the update and restarted, looks just the same really. Thanks for helping ease my paranoia, guys.

It only looks different when you aren't paying attention.
