Windows 7 Service Pack 1 can take a considerable amount of time - up to an hour on many computers - to install. During installation, even a fairly fast computer will operate slowly, and some systems may be difficult to use at all. Service Pack 1 is a critical update for Windows 7 - it is a prerequisite for future updates and security fixes from Microsoft. Not distributing it is not an option. Manually installing Service Pack 1 via Windows Updates before we push it out on campus allows you to install the upgrade at your convenience.
