Claiming it to be the most reliable and secure server operating system it has ever produced, Microsoft officials on Friday announced it has delivered the final code of Windows Server 2003 to manufacturing. In concert with the Windows Server 2003 announcement, Microsoft also announced it is releasing the final code of its 64-bit SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Edition to manufacturing. The upcoming data base is designed to support memory-intensive applications that require high performance.

In a press conference with reporters this morning Microsoft officials said they are still on track to deliver to both products to users on April 24, along with Visual Studio .Net 2003 at a splashy event to be held in San Francisco .
