Vista SP1 and Windows Server 2008 are finished, and Server 2008 was up on Connect and MSDN at approximately 9AM ET today. Vista SP1 will be available to enterprise and OEM customers but home users using Windows/Microsoft Update may have to wait until March or April to get the SP1 due to last-minute hardware/driver incompatibility issues.

I don't think so, despite having the same filename the hash values are different and a few of the internal files have different modified dates.
