If you are planning the deployment of Windows Vista Service Pack 1 in your organisation or at home, here is a tip I got from a conference call with the Windows Vista team in Redmond: the last Windows Vista SP1 RC2 (build 1800) released to beta testers contains the same bits as the Windows Vista SP1 RTM announced a couple of days ago.It means that for all of you out there planning compatibility tests, migration, etc you can safely use the RC2 as a base platform for testing.

Ok, dont ask me why and for what I am brining Vista Features to Windows Server 2008
The Vista Features includes things like,
1) Windows Media Player
2) Windows Flip 3D
3) Windows Aero Theme
4) Windows Mail
5) etc.,
By default this is not installed in Windows Server. To enable them, you need to add the Desktop Experience Feature from the Add Features wizard.

I am in Warkworth (New Zealand) with other 150 technologists, developers, thinkers, writers, entrepreneurs participating in the second Kiwi Foo Camp, organised by O'Reilly's Nat Torkington and his crew.
It is an amazing mix of people and knowledge around here. Radio NZ is broadcasting live from the premises, discussions are going on almost around the clock - and this time we didn't get lost on the way here thanks to... technology (gotta love GPS, Google Maps Mobile and cellular data).
Talking about wireless data we have wireless LAN here, but you can imagine how a crowd of 150 technologists can quickly overload the tubes. So I am using my Telecom data card. I noticed that Telecom New Zealand has upgraded this site to CDMA EVDO since the same time last year, but Vodafone New Zealand still provides the same non-usable GPRS service around here.
The conversations around here are not NDA, but it's a matter of principle to only disclose things if you ask and receive a positive response.
I gotta go now for one of my sessions. Here are a few pictures from the opening:

I installed Windows Server on top of Vista and after installation of Windows Server 2008, the boot menu was shown with options to boot into Vista or Server 2008
Cool
