Hyper-V to release 180 days from today
Virtualization February 4th, 2008Windows 2008 hit RTM today (in building 26 actually), you can read the official announcement over at Presspass.
So I guess this (maybe) marks the beginning of ‘that final countdown‘: Hyper-V to release 180 days from now. This means the release date would roughly be the first week in August; Just in time for VMworld and WinHEC in September =)
Speaking of mid September, that should be around the time that the first beta of SCVMM vNext should be available. Just remember, none of these dates are formal, just pure speculation based on the information out there.
Wow. Exciting times. Strangely enough, this time last year I asked the “virtualization-fairy-god-mother” for and exciting rollercoaster ride of Virtualization interoperability. I think my exact words were “I want to see that curve so steep, you can just feel the gforces kicking in!“
…I guess I have to be careful what I wish for!!
