Microsoft claims more than 1 million customers downloaded the Windows Server 2003 preview code through the Corporate Preview Program prior to the server's launch, which is scheduled for Thursday in San Francisco.
"[It's] the highest level of distribution for any server in the history of Microsoft," the company said in an announcement Wednesday. The release of the number is designed to demonstrate momentum around the operating system, which is a relatively minor upgrade of Windows 2000 compared to the massive changes between Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 2000.
