I have SP1 RTM running at my home machine for around 2 weeks now. There are any number of articles on the web on the changes, both on how many things are faster and some on app incompatibilities etc.
Looking at it purely from a end user perspective, SP1 is quite transperant from an experience perspective. Maybe things are a little faster, but not enough to actually be felt. I know a lot of file operations have become faster, but I don't copy/move files that often that I have actually noticed anything.
It does look to improve reliability, apart from nVidia driver crashes (which were present even before SP1), but then this maybe because of other factors too.
Is this good or bad?? Good in that it does not break any of my work and all those bug fixes are not affecting what I want to get done. I know it has not drastically changed stuff to make them better, but I prefer a SP that does not break and has minor improvements, to one that has major changes that may break stuff.
