Have MS fixed the "slow HD" and "slow LAN copy" bugs?

Sorry, I haven't read all the posts...

I installed it yesterday...I like it (still hate Vista though)

I've disabled UAC, did that a while ago, now I only get a warning when the computer starts up and I just close that (not related to SP1, but yea, if you want to get rid of UAC just disable it use msconfig)

I read the release notes for SP1 before I installed it (was waiting for it to go live on Windows Update), and it's done what it said it would (at least in what matters to me).

The biggest problem I'd had with vista over XP was copying files, especially from a compressed (zipped) folder to the disk, like when installing something for FS.  The release notes said they would improve the speed, and it did!  It went from being badly slow to lightning fast, which is great!  

In general I haven't had terrible problems with Vista either before or after SP1 (other than it took a while to get used to and is still pretty underwhelming, I don't use half the features it offers cause they arent all that amazing), but I guess the real test will come in the next few weeks or months while running SP1.
