Windows Server 2008 R2 got the lion's share of attention on Thursday at the Windows Hardware Engineering Conference in Los Angeles, starting with a keynote by Microsoft exec Bill Laing.
Laing is Microsoft's corporate vice president of the Windows Server Division. While much of the news about Windows Server 2008 R2 features had been disclosed last week at Microsoft's Professional Developer's Conference, the keynote hit the high points for an audience consisting largely of Microsoft's hardware engineering partners.
The R2 version of Windows Server 2008 isn't generally available yet, but it's being reviewed by some of Microsoft's partners. It's expected to be publicly available in late 2009 or early 2010.
