Vista 64 sp1 available as one disk installation? I checked Newegg.com - Computer Parts, PC Components, Laptop Computers, Digital Cameras and more! and it seems they're selling a one disk Vista SP1. I live in Vancouver (no newegg deliveries here) and i went to a local PC shop and he said sell sp1 as separate disk and he also thinks newegg does the same. I know I can combine both disk to create on, but I rather have all in one disk.

For the here and now, it seems as though there are no plans by Microsoft to release Vista SP1 slipstreamed into the Vista installation as a standalone disk, unless you're willing to pay for a new Vista license for install media with SP1 integrated.

And slipstreaming it yourself is not as easy as it used to be with Windows XP and SP2.

Certainly, I'm hoping Microsoft DOES provide slipstreamed media (without a license) to it's existing customers, even if for a nominal fee such as S&H.

So, you're saying there is a single disk Vista sp1 installation, but must be bought new?I got two Vista copies for my two laptops, but I am buying a new license for my desktop.

if you use vlite it is a straight forward process to slipstream sp1 into a new image and burn a disk
