Fix copy-and-pasteo.

Refer to the SDK as just the SDK, not the Platform SDK - Microsoft
dropped the "Platform" with the Vista SDK.

Update the section on the SDK to reflect that and to reflect that Vista
isn't the current version.

<para>The Windows Platform SDK (PSDK) or Windows SDK is a free
(as in beer) download and contains platform specific headers and
libraries (e.g. windows.h, WSock32.lib, ...). As new Windows
features evolve in time, updated PSDK's become available that
features evolve in time, updated SDK's become available that
include new and updated API's.</para>
<para>When you purchase a commercial Visual Studio, it will
include a PSDK. The free (as in beer) downloadable C compiler
include an SDK. The free (as in beer) downloadable C compiler
versions (VC++ 2005 Express, .NET Framework, ...) do not
contain a PSDK - you'll need to download a PSDK in order to
contain an SDK - you'll need to download a PSDK in order to
have the required C header files and libraries.</para>
<para>Older Versions of the Platform SDK should also work.
However, the command to set the environment settings will be
different, try search for SetEnv.* in the SDK
directory.</para>
<para>BTW: "Windows SDK" seems to be the new name of the
Platform SDK for Vista. The current SDK name is misleading:
"Microsoft Windows Software Development Kit for
Windows Vista and .NET Framework 3.0 Runtime
Components" - translated this means: the Windows SDK for
Windows Vista and Platforms (like WinXP) that have the .NET
3.0 runtime installed.</para>
<para>Prior to Windows Vista, the name "Platform SDK" was used;
starting with Vista, the name was changed just to "Windows
Software Development Kit" or "Windows SDK". The full names of the
SDKs can be misleading; for example, the SDK for Vista was called
the "Microsoft Windows Software Development Kit for Windows Vista
and .NET Framework 3.0 Runtime Components", which really means the
Windows SDK for Windows Vista and Platforms (like WinXP) that have
the .NET 3.0 runtime installed.</para>
