Microsoft has made Vista Service Pack 2 available for download.
The 348MB download (577MB for 64-bit Vista users) is little more than a enormous bug fix, encompassing all the updates released since Vista SP1 rolled out.
The Service Pack is a combined update for both Vista and Windows Server 2008.
The smattering of new and enhanced features include a revamped Windows Search, support for Bluetooth 2.1 and the option to burn Blu-ray discs from within Windows.
Users who wish to install SP2 must have SP1 installed first.
The Service Pack should start arriving via Windows Update shortly, if you can't be bothered to download the super-patch directly.
IT managers wishing to test the Service Pack or those who simply can't wait can download the 32-bit Vista SP2 here and the 64-bit version here.
