23.08.2007Office 2008 for Mac Sneak Peek Kick-Off
At the beginning of August I told you that we'd start communicating more about Office 2008 in September. Well, it's September, and I am back here on
Mac Mojo to kick-off the next wave of information on Office 2008.
We know that there are many Mac Mojo readers out there that
need to start planning Office 2008 deployment in their organizations. As we start to share information, well focus on some information that will help
you start thinking about your enterprise deployment alongside some deeper dives into some of the new features in Office 2008.
We
have invested in Exchange support in Entourage for the past four years, and continue to do so in Office 2008. I think Entourage 2008 users in Exchange
environments will find this the most reliable version to date - I have been living in daily builds of Entourage for over two months now, and I am
delighted with the stability and reliability of our Exchange support and how well the calendar interoperates with my assistant, who uses Outlook.

If you're still using Outlook Express for checking your Windows Live Hotmail, listen up. Microsoft will be cutting off your access in three
months. On September 1, 2009, the support for Distributed Authoring and Versioning (WebDAV), the protocol that Outlook Express and a handful of older
clients currently use to access Hotmail, will be discontinued. As Neowin reported in April of last year, Microsoft originally planned to cut off
access for Outlook Express users on June 30, 2008. However the WebDAV protocol got a stay of execution after users complained that it was too soon.
Microsoft's management agreed and gave users another year to make the migration.

13.05.2009How Microsoft Can Save Vista And Windows Server 2008
Mitchell Ashley: Over the weekend my son Phil and I built a computer and a server for the test lab I use in my business (building computers is also a
hobby we share). One of the machines was a Vista box, the other was a server which I'm testing the Windows Server 2008 RC-1 Hyper-V software that
came out last Thursday. I'm sure I'll be writing about the Hyper-V RC-1 software in several upcoming blog posts.
It caused me
to think about 2008 and to look back at the 2007 ups and downs of Vista since its introduction earlier in the year. The Vista SP1 service pack is
coming in February 2008, while at the same time Vista is being compared to Windows ME, another Windows operating system Microsoft "didn't get
right".

18.12.2007Windows Server 2008 is 20% faster than Vista
It seems Microsoft may have a successor (or replacement) for Vista after all and it’s already been released. Windows Server 2008 isn’t
easy to configure as a desktop operating system but when done correctly can be 20% faster than Vista while retaining most of the same features.
Windows Workstation 2008 is not a product sold by Microsoft and must be configured from a copy of Windows Server 2008. It seems this version
of Windows lacks the “bloat” that is part of Vista. However, I am not sure what the author is referring to (but is likely talking about
unnecessary services). Of course this version of Windows was designed with developers in mind who covet speed above all else. Workstation 2008
includes IIS and Hyper-V for creating virtual machines.
A
Microsoft
employee and
third party website have created tutorials on how to
use Windows Server 2008 as a desktop operating system. This is what I’ve been referring to as Windows Workstation 2008. Keep in mind that this
will have the same driver problems as Vista does, meaning, if a Vista driver doesn’t exist for a piece of hardware you still won’t be able
to use it with Server or Workstation 2008.
