Windows Server 2008 RC1 is available for download.

Download Now for 30-Day Trial

The 64 bit Enterprise edition isn’t available just yet, once it’s up I’ll download it and confirm that Hyper-V is in the public release and give everyone an update.

Until then, grab a copy of the Step-by-Step Guide to Getting Started with Windows Server Virtualization and check and see if your hardware is on the list.

UPDATE:  If you are using SUN hardware you will need to read the Sun Windows 2008 BluePrint.  Hyper-V does not run on the Sunfire as of yet.  I’m chatting with Sun about this at the moment.

Post back soon when I know more.
