    Ah. Is it an actual release version, or a beta/RC/trial?

    I don't think they have the VLKs ready for it yet(we're spla too). We got the betas and RCs last year and the gold with our last update.

    The native virtualization is neat though we're not going to do any benchmarking until sp1. Also the guiless install feels dirty......(in only the best way!)

    We were told by our SPLA guy begining of March. The pricing and requirements should have been sent out last week. (ours were)

    We have a couple colo's running the version MS had available for download. The feedback we've gotten from them hasn't been positive.

    Although it will probably be worth nothing, does anyone knows about the ability's to use Hyper-V as VPS reselling software? How does it preform, and would it be possible to program an interface for it, so customers can "basic" manage (on/off/restart, bandwidth monitor,..) it?
    How does it work out with licenses when you want to use it for reselling?
