Windows 7 and Server 2008 R2 SP1

ALREADY? They just released 7 and there's already a service pack (in Beta)
Windows Server 2008 R2 Operating System

EDIT: After being neg repped for this I decided to put some specifics here. It is a Beta SP1 for 2008 R2 and Windows 7 combined. You must be running both to use it as it adds/enhances some features such as Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) and RemoteFX.

Windows 7 has been out for coming up on a year now. Sounds about time for a service pack.

They probably started work on this before windows 7 was even officially released. I'm sure there were things they learned during the RC phase that they wanted to change but were on a tight deadline and didn't have time to.

The first windows vista service pack was released 13 months after the software went retail. Service pack 2 went public 14 months after that.

Service pack 1 for XP was released 11 months after the OS came out. It seems like this is pretty quick, but it is fairly standard.
