I believe that Vista SP2 was also Windows Server 2008 SP2, there was no Server 2008 SP1 as it was actually at SP1 when it released. Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 will in fact share SPs as they are the same base kernel. Tim

To me 2008 R2 might as well be 2009 Server, 2003 R2 was 2004 Server, etc... Question: Vista SP1 was also 2008 SP1, is Win7 SP1 going to be the same as 2008 R2 SP1? Win 7 = Vista R2 That's how I think of those things, sure was easier when it was a version number I marketing terms, nobody would ask if a NT 3.51 SP would work on NT4.
