Join Us For InformationWeek Live -- Later Today


Posted by Mitch Wagner, Feb 19, 2008 12:56 PM

I'm pleased to report that Microsoft will be joining us at 3 pm Eastern time today for our InformationWeek Live session to discuss the company's big, upcoming server announcements. Microsoft plans to launch Windows Server 2008, SQL Server 2008, and Visual Studio 2008 on Feb. 27 -- the first server OS upgrade in five years, and the first database upgrade in three.

The products are the foundation of Microsoft's lucrative servers and tools business. But with Microsoft fallen behind on key technologies for the server products, and challenges from competitors including Linux, can Microsoft maintain momentum?

Join David Lowe, Microsoft senior product manager for Windows Server, InformationWeek senior editor Nick Hoover, and me as we explore the issues in a live audio Q&A 3 pm Eastern time today.

Just go to the InformationWeek Live page on TalkShoe or call (724) 444-7444 Call ID: 12478 or visit us at the CMP Amphitheater in Second Life (SLURL)

And read all about the announcements in Hoover's in-depth report on the upcoming announcements and what they mean to IT.
