March 26, 200818 yr Administrator There are a lot of users out there who are still stuck on dial-up, so updating to Vista SP1 won't be an easy task for them. Thankfully they can order the Vista SP1 DVD from NewEgg for $5.00. It's a great deal for those with dial-up or those who would like to have a hard copy of the service pack. NewEgg always has very fast shipping and best of all, this offer has free 3 day business shipping. So you'll get it even faster than if you were to order it directly from Microsoft. This DVD is for the Service Pack only and is not a full Windows Vista with SP1 integrated installation media. Source: NewEgg Vista SP1 Deal Link: Lunarsoft Frontpage
March 26, 200818 yr Wouldn't it be great if MS offered it for free? Ubuntu do it with their whole OS, surely MS could if you registered and verified you had a legit copy, they could send it.

Indian giver is an American English expression used for any individual who gives something and then either takes it back or wants to take it back. The expression Indian giver is based on the belief that Native Americans would lend items to the settlers, in other words, let them borrow necessities. The settlers thought that this was a gift from the Native Americans; hence, they were shocked when the Native Americans asked for their items back.
