nice.

How about if you actually read the post - specifically the part where I referred to OEMs actually shipping Windows Server 2008 preinstalled ?

Yes, I did mean in a US-centric, major OEMs kinda way such as Dell and HP.
In checking on both of their retail sites, neither had w2k8 listed as an option when specifying a server OS.

Guess that w2k8 server is not current quite yet.

Are you running the current version of SQL Server 2008 on that as well?'
