I was catching up with Phil Rickard, the Network Administrator for Moy Park the other day - he attended some Windows Server 2008 training I ran last year.  Basically, I was seeing how he was getting on with the new OS.  He had this to say:

"After attending the Longhorn Academy in Dublin, I came away with a great deal of enthusiasm for what promises to be a fantastic Server product.  I am already educating the business in the benefits of the ‘Out of the box’ features such as Hyper-V, Server Core and Terminal Services.  I can see that Hyper-V with Clustering is going to give the business and affordable Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery solution.  And the latest version of Terminal Service is now advanced enough for us to contemplate moving away from the costly licensing of Citrix.  It plans to be a busy year!"

A busy year indeed!  Not just for you Phil - I recon that Windows Server 2008 is going to be one of the quickest versions of Windows Server to get deployed.
