Windows Server 2008 on Virtual PC and Virtual Server

We've just released updates to both Virtual Server and Virtual PC to give better support for Windows Server 2008 (and Vista SP1 and XP SP3).

If you're running either solution, I'd recommend you upgrade to the latest.

Hi Dave,

the  download page only mentions the support for more OS's - if you're already running win 2003 64 bit host with win 2003 32 bit guests are there any other changes that I can benifit from?
