Microsoft Surface

As James says, and just like little children worldwide – “I want one!”.  I can’t wait until this is available for the home rather than for commercial use, that said being able to walk into a store and really interact is amazing.   The on10.net video is very good and explains the art of the possible really well.

Windows Server Virtualization Calculator(s)

I stumbled on this today, it seems there is a second calculator now available (the first was made available in January).   

The licensing page has been updated to reflect the two calculators:

• Calculator 1 – is designed to estimate the licenses and cost of Windows Server by editions and numerous Microsoft server products on a single, physical server.
  
• Calculator 2 – is designed to estimate the licenses and cost of only Windows Server by edition for one or multiple physical servers.
  

There are also numerous links to other licensing briefs pertinent to Virtualization at the bottom of the page.
