Windows Server 2008!??!?!

Motoxrdude · 11-25-2007, 08:23 PM

Just curious as to the urgency?
Also the reason you can't find a DVD of it is that its still a beta.

Okay, Are there any dvd's that you can purchase of windows server 2008?
I mean release candidates, or betas. So many people talk about how you can get a dvd but i cant get any

Well, not all Forums are as efficient as these when responding to Posts. Maybe the Posters there may only come out at night

Honestly though, you need to tone down a with bumping. There's not so much activity on these Forums that your Post will be bumped back to the second or third page every 15 minutes. Give some other Posters a chance to respond

stop bumping your dumb posts asking for people to help you. do your own damn work. this is nothing mission critical so why are you impatient?. you only want this to dural when you are older. how about doing some growing up now and realisize not everyone is going to spoon feed you answers to your problems. can i say **** here?

Exactly, heres a great help for you

www.google.com

Now, lets put them fingers to use and start searching shall we, rather that try and get a whole forum of technical experts to try and find where we could buy a dvd for server 2008.

You seem to be able to post on this fast enought, lets see you get working on search terms!

Don't you have to have a MSDN subscription to download RC versions of the whatever OS?

why is there such a rush?

its not for sale yet since its not released yet. release candidates are beta versions that will be released if no problems are found. if you want to have a copy of it on dvd, you have to wait until its released. then you can get a 30 day trial on cd or dvd for only the cost of shipping via the microsoft website (its how i got a copy of server 2003)
