Microsoft has released a couple of service packs that will be of interest to our managed server hosting customers.
The first of these is Service Pack 2 for Windows Server 2008. Service Pack 1 was actually already a part of the original release. This was because it was using the same basic code as Vista which went to SP1 at around the time of the W2008 launch.
