CORRECT. I have been testing SP1 for Vista since Early January. It's right there. RIGHT THERE! It's just the Dev's who are upset (maybe?) that there is not a final version of SP1 for their purposes.
But then... is anything ever really "final" in the Windows world?
Incidentally, it took over TWO HOURS to download and then install the SP1 release client on a Core 2 Duo 2GB RAM laptop with a 6-Meg internet connection.
And then, when chips are so small, they will live inside our cells. And we will merge with the technology. And I will be very, very scared. http://youtube.com/watch?v=qnreVTKtpMs/
Nice laptop you got there! Mind if I take a look?

No, you see, because the cards are oh so very heavy. Perhaps the licenses are made of Osmium. That would be convenient, as you could use old drivers licenses to make a metal-hydride battery. Of course, you would need to keep your card in a fume hood. Hopefully the government will provide subsidies for those who cannot afford fume hoods.
the Ark of the Covenant? Give me a break. It's not a gadget. It's a box. A decorated box.
Actually... The Ark of the Covenant may have been capable of, at the very least, storing electricity. This was a theory tested on Mythbusters http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baghdad_Battery#Testing_the_theory (I think some Slashdotters might have heard of this show?)
Other people speculate that it acted as a capacitor. Legends say it was capable of levitation and bringing down the walls of Jericho.
There isn't even an option to use the old format we needed, it is simply not there anymore.

As someone who uses Vista at work, I for one welcome our slightly faster copy-and-paste overlords.
Video Game Industry, or Gaming Industry. How about the people who run Wizards of the Coast. Or the original creators of Dungeons and Dragons.
How about the Monopoly guy? (j/k)
You forgot: "mass histeria", "this is not the laptop you are looking for", "from my cold dead hands", etc.
