Microsoft extreme makeover

Yes, that's right. Microsoft has indeed decided to throw away the old logo and replace it with a new one. Or is it really a new logo? Does it look any better? Will it change life as we know it?

Windows Server 2012 availability

I missed that the Windows Server Blog also informed us that Windows Server 2012 is complete (RTM) and will be available within the next couple of weeks. One could assume that both the client and server version will be available on technet the very same day. And there was much rejoicing!

Windows 8 availability

Fresh information from Blogging Windows tells us that Windows 8 will be available in a couple of weeks. MSDN and Technet subscribers will be first in line followed by SA customers and partners the day after. Consumers will have to wait until the last week in October. This is excellent news as I'm about to lay my paws on a new laptop which indeed will be blessed with Windows 8. I'll take that with Hyper-V, thank you!

No official word about Server 2012, though. What's up with that?
