Anyone have a guesstimate for when Windows 7 SP1 should be available to the public (e.g., via Windows Update)? It went RTM in version 7601.17514.101119-1850 some weeks ago (and was leaked online). How long does it normally take a Service Pack to go through whatever processes in Microsoft are run after that before it gets rolled-out to the public? Every indication is that it's stable, but it would be good to have some idea when official delivery will occur. Yes, I know about the Service Pack Blocker Tool for administrators. Thanks. -Noel
