Hey guys

So Ive been reading and watching a few videos on youtube regarding Windows Server 8 and I wanted to ask you guys what do you think of it so far do you think it will be successful OS or do you think its going to end up like Vista.

Personnally i think Server 8 Will be good i guess MS invests lots of money in R&D.

I 'm sure they will deliver a Server OS that brings innovation especially for the management part.

Like Vista. Microsoft has had the trend of releasing a "beta" finished product to the public before a good solid OS (relatively speaking).

Not many companies adopted it for one reason or another. I personally didn't have any gripes with it. Used it from when it first came out till Windows 7 came out.

XP and Windows 7 are common in the work place. I've only been to one company that switched to Vista.

A lot of people haven't moved to Server 2008R2 yet, which is a fantastic server operating system by almost any measure. I am excited for Windows Server 8 in virtual and turn-key appliance applications.

I've actually been playing with the developer preview and I can say for sure that this is not going to be the case with Win 8 (neither the client nor the server). Much of the advertised functionality seems to be available and working and it's not even in beta yet.
