Vista’s last hope before 7
TechARP is all about Vista Service Pack 2; first by reporting on the likely release dates, and now on the features that SP2 will add. You will see support for 64-bit CPUs from VIA, more Wi-Fi features, even improvements to DirectX. If Windows 7 releases according to schedule, Vista is in for a very short run; hopefully SP2 will help people remember it in the future with a little less loathing.
