Ballmer said: "Both products have released to manufacturing today [Monday], which is good news."

Ballmer said: "We think we are turning the corner in terms of enterprise deployment and Service Pack 1 will be a huge boon."
Microsoft will begin distributing Vista SP1 via Windows Update in mid-March, according to a Microsoft blog post.
Microsoft is due to formally launch Windows Server 2008 on 27 February at an event in Los Angeles.
