You can now download Vista SP1 through the windows update site. I have read mixed review on the product how it will only increase write times by 1-5%. But anything to speed up performance will help. Thank you M$.

Update: 1 Hour later (download + install)
I have installed SP1. My boot time seems a little faster, maybe by about 5 seconds. Direct Download Link Here
