Thanks to oqwarrior for the heads up.

From C|Net, Windows XP Service Pack 1 alpha builds have shipped to OEMs and eventually will include many enhancements to the core OS as well as the usual bug fixes we are used to seeing with a service pack. Such enhancements include:

Support for the Mira technology.
Ability for OEMs to remove more middleware technologies. This includes Media Player, Internet Explorer, Windows Messenger.

No matter which remedy emerges as the final one, Windows XP Service Pack 1 will give consumers their first taste of the fruits of the antitrust case.
