New Functionality in Windows Server 2008
Windows Server 2008 is set to hit the streets at an official launch on February 27. Many organizations are very excited about the latest and greatest server operating system from Redmond. There certainly seems to be greater anticipation for Windows Server 2008 than there was, or even still is, for Windows Vista. If you think that Windows Server 2008 is just Windows Server 2003 with a makeover though, think again. Microsoft has published a document titled Windows Server 2008: Changes in Functionality from Windows Server 2003 with SP1 to Windows Server 2008 which is 341 pages long. That is not everything there is to know about Windows Server 2008, but almost 350 pages just describing how Windows Server 2008 is different than Windows Server 2003. Download the document from Microsoft and take a look through it to see what you have to look forward to. If you haven’t already, you should get a hold of a Beta or Evaluation copy of Windows Server 2008 so you can install it on a test machine and check it out for yourself.
