Hmmm...Office 2007 SP1 still had to go through the download...

That seems like a waste of time to me, since I already installed SP1 manually yesterday. Windows Update sensed that SP1 was already installed , but only after it had downloaded the service pack into the Windows Update cache.

Applied Office 2007 SP1 yesterday...yet...

Office 2007 SP1 installed...

What’s next? Time to test it out. Hopefully, Outlook is a little more responsive. That’s the only app I really have issues with. No reboot required, btw. Of course, I did shut down all Office apps prior to installing.

Installing Office 2007 SP1 now...

I can see that Microsoft has gotten smarter. No longer is there a percentage amount on the progress bar for installations. Just a pulsating progress bar that only seems to move when you look away and look back.
