How dare you say Microsoft steals! Good business is good business!
But…unfortunately (or fortunately) the world revolves around Microsoft, and so we must.
I wonder if SP1 for Vista being released means that in a year or so when Microsoft starts trying to push everyone in the corporate world out of their XP deployments and into Vista environments, there won’t be mass confusion.
I’ve heard good things about Server 2008. I can’t wait till a copy becomes available on DreamSpark so I can get it for nothing. As for Vista, this is the first time I haven’t jumped quickly onto the next new OS Microsoft has released. It’s definitely a beast, but much of it is unfamiliar. Of course, I remember when Blanyer and I were running the scary XP Beta, and he deleted his recycle bin. So I guess you have to take the good with the bad.

BTW, both service packs are deployed, and neither box has melted into a mass of useless plastic or anything.
