Windows 7 has been officially available for less than five months. In that time, it has established itself as the fastest-selling operating system in history--selling over 90 million copies. Despite that tremendous success, Microsoft has to continue to update and evolve the platform, which is why rumors and speculation are already beginning to mount regarding a Service Pack 1 (SP1) release.
Sources throughout the Internet and blogosphere are citing various reports that SP1 is under development, or possibly even already being beta tested, and that we can expect it to be released sometime toward the end of 2010.
One of the primary sources of speculation appears to be a Malaysian Web site called TechARP.com. TechARP cites unnamed sources claiming that Microsoft initially intended to develop SP1 on a 22-month cycle, but that the release of SP1 has been accelerated to address potentially serious issues in the operating system. The report is vague on details of what issues would warrant such an urgent change in the SP1 development cycle, though.
