I just did the same and somehow ended up back at the page linked to in this submission...
edit: okay, just got to the same document you did. Apparently microsoft considers 'release notes' to be 'notes about the process of releasing' which that document will have when there are any, rather than notes about the release itself, aka the Service Pack. There is another file on that link called 'Notable Changes in Windows 7 SP1' or something similar, which basically boils down the changes to: HDMI audio improvements, fix to XPS documents, and a change in the way 'restore previous folders at logon' works...
- sliverstorm 16y agoSeeing as these are not major notable changes, what seems most likely? 1) They released a SP as a milestone because it was 'about time' 2) They released a SP as a rollup to bring everyone to the same page 3) They need to push the HDMI audio updates extra hard...?
- mrcharles 16y agoMore likely they just hit a limit for hotfixes, and do a rollup because they'll do a reprint of the DVDs as well, so that new systems come without needing 200 hotfixes.
