This isn't Windows Vista Service Pack 1, but it might as well be. The updates released by Microsoft came in two parts. The first was the performance and reliability pack while the second was the compatibility and reliability pack.
While the names leave something to be desired, the updates do cover a wide range of problems. This bundle is not yet included as an automatically pushed Windows Update, but the stand alone installer treats is exactly like any other Windows update.
While the only problem on the list that may have ever affected me was the printer spooling and file transfer speeds, it still seems like an important update for anyone using Vista. From what I can tell there have been limited problems with people involving the install.
It appears that the main result from these updates is correcting longstanding, but very specific, problems that have plagued some Vista users. While Vista comes under sever scrutiny from many Windows XP users, I have found it to be a superior operating system (even though it still has its problems).
