I think Microsoft needs an executive enema. They seem to be in a serious freefall productwise since Vista hit the street. I had assumed they would make sure their new servers were solid before marketing them so they wouldn't have to do damage control on new products, but I was mistaken (I'm never wrong). I would think they would have the guts to at least say the servers aren't ready and roll back the launch parties, but here comes Server 2008Jr so the marketing dweebs can act like a product is ready. At least they aren't putting out a crippled SQL Server (yet anyway).

Of course this means Cougar (SBS 2008) will get pushed way back too..
