Windows Vista Service Pack 1 standalone installers now available in all languages

Since Microsoft does not officially support the slipstreaming of Windows Vista with Service Pack 1, it would be nice if the company made available a standalone all-language DVD ISO of Windows Vista with SP1 already integrated available via its Web site. That's not happening, from what I can tell. But the following three options are available now: Windows Vista Service Pack 1 All Language Standalone DVD ISO This is a DVD ISO image and contains both x86 and x64 versions of Windows Vista Service Pack 1. Windows Vista Service Pack 1 All Language Standalone EXE (English, x86) Windows Vista Service Pack 1 All Language Standalone version can be installed on any language version. Windows Vista Service Pack 1 All Language Standalone EXE (English, x64) Windows Vista Service Pack 1 All Language Standalone version can be installed on any language version. Note that none of these are required or recommended for single, standalone upgrades to SP1. Instead, use Windows Update.
