re: "The current code is a development version of the .NET" I'm a little confused. I thought .NET was just the new name for Microsoft's development environment, Visual Studio .NET. You can install Visual Studio .NET on a Windows 98 machine, so I didn't think there was a new operating system associated with ".NET." But, with a little digging, I found that .NET is a set of products and standards to improve client-server computing, or to extend Microsofts domination of it, depending on your point of view. The enterprise server programs are listed by Microsoft at microsoft.com They are all pre-.NET-strategy Windows 2000 products. But looking a little further, I saw the only real .NET product, other than the development environment: "Windows .NET Server Beta 3." See microsoft.com So is "Windows .NET Server Beta 3" the server version that Microsoft has adapted for the Hammer, sorry, Opteron? I assume so, and that a 64-bit version of this server operating system will be running on a dual-opteron machine at the annual meeting. Unfortunately, they probably won't have it connected to 64 GB of memory, or running millions of transactions, to demonstrate the performance that a true 64-bit server is capable of. Here is a short description of the new "Windows .NET Server Beta 3" from PC Magazine: pcmag.com Petz
