You might end up feeling like a [Samuel Beckett character][3] according to Microsoft. - -The company said today it has no plans to issue a major service pack for Vista because the new OS is "[high quality right out of the gate][1]." - -While Vista's security may be debateable given the [patch rushed out earlier this week][2], the main reason we probably won't see huge Vista service packes involves changes in the updating tools. - -Vista's bundled Windows Update software makes it easy for Microsoft to incrementally issue smaller fixes as the need arrises rather than big updates. - -The service pack upgrades probably won't disappear altogether, but the ability to push out smaller updates over time means we probably won't see the massive SP2-type upgrades of Windows XP. - -"Will we continue to have service packs? Yes we will," Michael Sievert, corporate VP for Windows marketing says. "But they have a different level of importance today as people get their updates in real-time using Windows Update." - -According to Australia's [iTnews][1], Sievert's remarks are from a transcript of a conference call he held Monday with financial analysts. - -Although Sievert did say smaller service packs would likely continue with Vista he refused to give a timeline which could mean they're a long way off. - -Have you been holding off for a service pack? Let us know what you think in the comments below. - -[1]: http://www.itnews.com.au/newsstory.aspx?CIaNID=49065 "Microsoft nixes 'Big Bang' service pack for Windows Vista" -[2]: http://blog.wired.com/monkeybites/2007/04/microsoft_relea.html "Microsoft Releases Windows Security Patch" -[3]: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waiting_for_Godot "Waiting for Godot"
