Interesting "Test Focus Guide" for SP2 of Windows Server 2008/Vista
One interesting document you might miss is the "Windows Vista SP2 and Windows Server 2008 SP2 Test Focus Guide", which is a 40-page guide that lists various changes, with scenarios and step-by-step instructions to recreate and observe the feature changes.
That's a nifty idea, and one I wish more vendors offered. It's not something I've seen offered for previous Windows OS releases (base or SP's).
I don't think it lists every feature, but it does list many that I'd not seen mentioned in the more glitzy "what's new" docs (at the URL offered up top here). By contrast, the Test Focus Guide is more text-heavy (all stuff, no fluff) and kind of rough.
For instance, I wish it offered more of a table of contents, because you can't readily eyeball what all it covers. I found the easiest way to find each topic is to search for "goal:", since each scenario has a listed goal.
Anyway, check it out. You may find something of interest there among its dozens and dozens of scenarios.
