How Windows Server 2008 Got It's Name

No doubt, most IT Pros are wondering how Microsoft managed to come up with the clever and innovative formal name for the server product previously known as Longhorn. It take some skill to turn a great sounding code name into such a boring and underwhelming product name. We've seen XP and Vista, but nothing so fresh and infesting in the server space. If you were wondering, well now the truth can be revealed. See the video at http://www.microsoft.com/winme/0705/30054/Windows_Server_Naming_HD_MBR.asx for all the details.

Of course, no matter WHAT it's called, or how they came up with the name, Longhorn rocks!!!
