This one isn't a question though.
The SP for Vista will be released at launch of Server.
It will bring the codebases back into line with one another for some simple
reasons.
Once they get the codebase back in line then fixes will be simpler and will
be easier to deploy across the spectrum of products.
Also new SP's can be released simultaneously which will save cost/time for
business and make rollouts less of a headache.
I'm not guessing on this, this is solid info.
