2003 Server Launch

Was interesting. Mostly just marketing hype BS, but some interesting demo’s of stuff that you can do with Server 2003 and Visual Studio .Net. The most exciting thing for me, and I’m sure all other people who do help desk work is the “Shadow Copy” feature that lets you revert back to a previous version of a document if you accidentally save over it. That could save quite a bit of support time! Imagine, not having to pull stuff off tape every time someone screwed up a document? *L*
