SBS 2008 RC1 has shipped!
We installed SBS 2008 RC1 yesterday for our TAP client – The Bellingham/Whatcom Chamber of Commerce. Easy upgrade from RC0. We have watched them go from an old and horribly unreliable Novell network to a network that has never crashed with SBS2008. We’ve been running SBS2008 in production there since last December, and the productivity for the Chamber has skyrocketed – they now have reliable and secure Mobility (Windows Mobile 5/6), Sharepoint with a heavily used Wiki (WSS 3.0), great WSUS patching, and a solid and stable (and FAST!) operating system. SBS 2008 is impressive software, and EBS 2008 is starting to intrigue me more and more, because SBS 2008 is just so darned good.
Here’s a fun video from Sean Daniels (on the SBS team) showing Kevin Kean (his boss) getting some pie in celebration of RC1 shipping… Thanks to Arlin for pointing me at this post.
Sean’s got a great blog over at http://sbs.seandaniel.com/
If you use/sell/install SBS, you should be reading it regularly…![]()
