Don't Miss the Party! Server 2008 Launch Events are Coming Next Month!

Microsoft is officially swinging in their new operating system, Server 2008, with the Heroes Happen Here Launch Events to occur all around the country. If you haven't been to a Microsoft launch event, they put on a good party. Best of all, they're free.

Check out the web site for the launch: http://www.microsoft.com/heroeshappenhere/default.mspx

There, you can sign up for events in your area and learn more not only about Server 2008, but also SQL 2008 and Visual Studio 2008. This launch event is for all three products.

Click below the fold for the list of cities and dates for each city.
