• Windows Vista SP1 Available on MSDN/TechNet Subscriber Downloads! (Finally)

  Finally! I was very surprised to see they finally have Windows Vista SP1 on MSDN and TechNet subscriber downloads. Currently you can only get the Windows Vista with SP1 pre-installed ISO's in the normal download section but it looks like that might be changing soon. For everything else they have this apparently new (to me at least) section called "Top Subscriber Downloads" that appears to be driven by Akamai. you can find that page here: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/subscriptions/bb608344.aspx. Hope that helps someone... Happy installing! Posted Feb 28 2008, 12:13 PM by Justin Long's Site

• Windows Server 2008 on MSDN Subscriber Downloads!

  I was pleased to see that Windows Server 2008 has been posted on MSDN downloads today. Unfortunately not all of the editions are currently available. Right now all they have is Datacenter, Enterprise and Standard for the x64 platform. They also have a word document there explaining what's available now and what's still coming if your interested in knowing more. I'm still excited none the less and look forward to setting up a test machine ASAP. Posted Feb 04 2008, 08:24 AM by Justin Long's Site
