Windows 7 Server Leaked Screenshot – Between the Lines

Windows 7 Server Leaked Screenshot – Between the Lines - The successor of Windows Server 2008 is dogfooded at Microsoft

Microsoft is hard at work building the next iterations of both the Windows client and server operating systems. But while the company has already opened up a tad about Windows 7, the successor of Windows Vista, it has managed to all but completely avoid the Windows 7 Server subject. There has been little to no official indications from Microsoft about what will after Windows Server 2008 released to manufacturing on February 4, 2008 and launched commercially at the end of the same month. Still, while the software giant has just wrapped up migrating all its boxes to Windows Server 2008, it is already dogfooding Windows 7 Server.

Confirmation of this fact was offered by Brian Puhl, an Active Directory engineer for Microsoft’s IT department, who managed to leak a Windows 7 Server screenshot along with additional details. The fact that Microsoft is already using Windows 7 Server internally is a clear indication that the operating system has evolved well past the "planning stage." In fact, due to the synchronization between the Windows client and server releases, the Windows 7 Server build being dogfooded might very well be on par with Windows 7, which has moved past Milestone 1.
