At this point, it is hard to tell on what is new to Windows 7 Service Pack 1 apart from the usual critical updates and security patches. Windows 7 SP1 first made an appearance back in January of this year when screenshots from Build 7600.20500 were first surfaced on the Internet.
This is not the first time that it has happened to some build of Windows 7. Many Windows 7 builds – including M1, Beta, post Beta, RC and RTM were all leaked before their scheduled release, or announcements.
Windows 7 RTM was announced back in July 2009. It is publicly available since the official launch, which was held on October 22nd 2009. Check out our Windows 7 Center for the complete coverage on the latest client version of Windows. [via Geeksmack]
