Windows Server 2008 Supposed to be out some time in, ha ha, 2008. It's different that W2K and W2003 [I did some beta testing on it].

If you work for a large company, then they probably have a lifecycle program for IT hardware. This lifecycle program would include hardware , software lifecycle, training and yearly budgeting.

you analysis should take in account the lifecycle program the company has, and for Windows Server 2008, include training for those who will administer the those servers.

see MS web site
