Microsoft is slashing the price of its forthcoming entry-level Windows Small Business Server 2003 to $599 and will hike the head count limit on both the Standard and Premium editions to 75, Microsoft executives said at the XChange Conference 2003 in Orlando, Fla.
The new, low-end version of Small Business Server will feature Windows Server 2003 and Exchange 2003 only and be priced at $599, roughly half of the $1,499 cost of the current Small Business Server 2000, Allison Watson, vice president of Microsoft's worldwide partner group, told applauding attendees at XChange.
