What is inside of Vista SP2?

Tip: Click here to update all your PC's outdated driversMicrosoft is continuing to broaden the pool of Windows Vista Service Pack 2 (SP2) testers beyond the fairly small, select group who’ve been working with test builds for the past few months.
On December 2, Microsoft made the latest beta build of SP2 available for download by any TechNet and Microsoft Developer Network (MSDN) subscribers.
Over on the jkOnTheRun blog, Kevin Tofel posted the most complete list I’ve seen of what’s in Vista SP2. (Tofel’s full list has disappeared, but not before I grabbed it. It’s now at the bottom of this post.)
In addition to the known Vista SP2 features — such as the ability to record data on to Blu-Ray media natively in Windows Vista and the addition of Windows Connect Now for simpler wifi configuration — Tofel says SP2 also will include:
* Built-in Hyper-V hypervisor
* Event logging support in SPC
* Fixes for DRM issues from WMP upgrades
* Windows Vista Feature Pack for Wireless
* Functionality to reduce resources required for sidebar gadgets
* Improved power settings for Windows Server 2008
Note (added on December 3): Even though Microsoft originally listed Hyper-V as one of the features it would make available as part of Vista SP2, that information is incorrect. A company spokeswoman sent me the following update:
“Sorry for any confusion, but Hyper-V is in Windows Server 2008 SP2, not Windows Vista. Apparently it was listed incorrectly and they’re correcting it now.”
