    I slip streamed SP1 into the vista OS and so when I install the OS it doesn't have too many updates to do. I did the same thing with XP sp3, saves a lot of time.

    I'll be buying my copy with SP1 but how do you slip stream?

    There's an application called nLite. You download and install it. Then when you run it you'll have a wizard that guides you through the process. You can slipstream service packs, drivers, product keys, configure certain settings like what you want windows to install, etc. You can also slip stream hotfixes and updates and much more.

    It's a pretty cool little tool and its free. Here's the link to nLite

    cheers for that, I always wondered what slipstreaming was.
