Windows Vista Service Pack 1 Retail Part Numbers

Finding the Windows Vista fully packaged product (retail) part numbers can be a bit of a struggle via the Internet or even our supplier's Web sites.

Different key words for different folks.

Here are the Windows Vista SP1 retail edition part numbers:

• 66G-02689 Windows Vista Home Basic SP1
• 66I-02387 Windows Vista Home Premium SP1
• 66J-06353 Windows Vista Business SP1
• 66R-02261 Windows Vista Ultimate SP1

All full retail editions come with both the x86 (32bit) and x64 (64bit) DVDs.

We sell retail into client locations as the foundation for our desktop OS virtualization setups. We then add on Windows Vista Software Assurance (>$75/Yr) and the Microsoft Desktop Optimization Pack for Software Assurance (>$20/Yr) for each required desktop VM on an Open Value Agreement with 3 year spread payment option.

For virtualization where we require a fine tuned desktop via Group Policy, or Line of Business Application compatibility across a number of remote client users, we have a good thing going with this setup.
