Technical Information

When did Microsoft release Service Pack 1 for Windows Server 2008? Why is there a second service pack for Server 2008 which had no SP1?

Windows Server 2008 released with the Service Pack 1 code included, and was marketed as Windows Server 2008 with SP1 already included.  SP2 is the first post-release Service Pack for Windows Server 2008. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd335038(WS.10).aspx
