Not everyone who wants to learn in-depth about Windows Server 2012 can make it to TechEd. Therefore, in cooperation with our co-sponsors Dell and HP, we’re sponsoring the Windows Server 2012 Community Roadshow, a complimentary series of events held around the world to present on some of the key infrastructure improvements we’ve made in Windows Server 2012, including:

  • Server Virtualization
  • Networking
  • Storage
  • Server Management and Automation

Even better, this road show will be presented by Microsoft MVPs: independent technology experts and experienced presenters. MVPs speak regularly at third-party and Microsoft industry conferences such as TechEd, so we’re thrilled to have so many MVPs presenting in this road show.
You can sign up at no cost for technical sessions in your area from the Windows Server 2012 Community Roadshow web site. Some events are already full, but you can get on the wait list by clicking the SOLD OUT link and following the instructions.
This is a great opportunity to learn about core infrastructure improvements in Windows Server 2012 from independent technical experts.

    Good point Mike. That would fit with the information I rvecieed last night from a Microsoft representative: Microsoft believes that most customers now expect virtualization capabilities in their server OS.

I expect the versions of Windows Server 2008 without Hyper-V to sell about as well as Windows XP N Edition and Windows Vista N Edition have
