Windows 2008 is coming and coming very very soon. Anyone who has access to MSDN will see that Windows 2008 x64 edition has been released and the 32-bit edition should be coming out shortly. Right now the worldwide launch of the operating system is scheduled for February 28th. Now everyone remembers what was said about Vista being the most secure operating system ever. Microsoft is making the same claim about Windows 2008. According to the documentation, Windows 2008 should have some new benefits which will make the OS run faster and more efficiently. I’m still waiting to get my grubby little hands on the 32-bit gold code. I’ll post my opinions once I have a chance to take it for a test drive.
Can you provide details on IBM’s plans to support Lotus-branded products (Domino, Sametime etc.) on Windows 2008 server?
At this time, Sametime is not supported on Windows 2008 Server. I will need to check with our product development team to see when we will introduct official support for the platform.
