Microsoft announced this week it has begun shipping new community technology previews of two key upcoming server products ? Windows Server 2008 and Office PerformancePoint Server 2007.
Previously codenamed Longhorn, Windows Server 2008 Beta 3 shipped two months ago and, with this CTP, is now feature complete, a Microsoft spokesperson told internetnews.com in an e-mail.
The latest CTP of Windows Server 2008 is available to MSDN and TechNet subscribers and Microsoft Connect customers. Microsoft claims there has been more than 200,000 downloads of Beta 3 so far. Windows Server 2008 is planned for release by the end of the year, although some industry observers have speculated that actual commercial availability of the product may not occur until early 2008.
