Windows Server 2008 vendrá con el Service Pack 1 ya instalado
2008-02-19 14:24:00 De acuerdo al calendario de lanzamientos hecho público por Microsoft, Windows Server 2008 se pondrá a la venta de manera oficial el próximo 27 de febrero. Lo que no se sabía hasta ahora es que vendrá con una novedad inesperada, puesto que ya tendrá instalado de fábrica el Service Pack 1. Puede sonar a broma pero no lo es en absoluto:Desde Microsoft justifican tal decisión argumentando que tanto Windows Vista como Windows Server 2008, aunque están destinados a mercados diferenciados, comparten una parte del código fuente, por lo que las actualizaciones y parches de seguridad que están preparando en el Service Pack 1 de Vista también son válidas para la versión destinada a los servidores. De hecho, la intención inicial de Microsoft era lanzar ambos sistemas operativos a la vez, pero la presión por parte de usuarios y medios de comunicación para que pusieran a la venta cuanto antes al sustituto de WinXP propició que se centraran en Vista y lo sacaran antes que el Server 2008.

So here is my tale of how I went about setting up Windows Server 2008 to look and fell like its desktop counterpart Windows Vista. 1. Enable Hardware Virtualization My workstation is a x64 machine with hardware virtualization capabilities. This means I can run Hyper-V on my machine. Even if your machine's hardware supports virtualization it is most likely not going to be enabled by default. You have to enable it via your BIOS setup. 2. Install the latest Graphics and Audio drivers Being a server OS Windows 2008 carries with it basic graphics and audio drivers. To utilize the full strength of your hardware ensure yo... |
