In the life of Windows Server, today marks general availability of public beta for the new Windows Server 2008 R2-and, for me personally, I’ve never had my geeky mitts on a better version. The new release incorporates a host of new features and capabilities that I hope you’ll check out; the code is as stable a beta as I’ve ever seen and combined with the beta of Windows 7\u00a0you’ll be able to evaluate not just a bevy of new server-side capabilities, but a new level of synergy between server and client operating systems, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A quick recap of my favorite highlights:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And as always, we’re looking for feedback so keep those comments coming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" In the life of Windows Server, today marks general availability of public beta for the new Windows Server 2008 R2-and, for me personally, I’ve never had my geeky mitts on a better version.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":685,"featured_media":20640,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"msxcm_post_with_no_image":false,"ep_exclude_from_search":false,"_classifai_error":"","_classifai_text_to_speech_error":"","footnotes":""},"post_tag":[140,32],"product":[],"content-type":[958],"solution":[952],"coauthors":[],"class_list":["post-2823","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-hyper-v","tag-powershell","content-type-announcements","solution-server-management","review-flag-2-1593580436-936","review-flag-7-1593580462-674","review-flag-alway-1593580309-789","review-flag-gener-1593580749-211","review-flag-never-1593580313-803","review-flag-new-1593580246-692"],"yoast_head":"\n
