What are the five best things about Vista SP2?

What Vista SP2 really is, when you get right down to it, is all the many fixes and patches that have been made to Vista since SP2. If you've been keeping your Vista system up to date, you won't need to update it.
That said, I tried Vista SP2 on two PCs to see what really was new and improved. The first PC was my tried and true Vista test box, a HP Pavilion Media Center TV m7360n PC with 2.8 GHz Pentium D 920 dual-core processor, and 2 GB of DDR (double-data-rate) RAM and a 300-GB SATA hard drive. In addition, I ran it on my Gateway DX4710 desktop PC with a 2.5-GHz Intel Core 2 Quad processor, 6GBs of RAM, and a 640GB hard drive, which I usually use for Windows 7.
