Windows The breakdown for the various editions of Windows Server 2008 was revealed this morning by Microsoft, and the big news there is the almost total lack of change: Retail server software editions for the next Windows Server will fall right in line with the current Windows Server 2003 R2 editions, including the number of client access licenses provided in the basic package.

Minwin is just a striped down kernel. I assume this means most of the kernel device drivers and subsystems have removed.

I think Minwin is a proof of concept more than anything because no practical OS can be made from such a striped design. Well, not if you want any decent hardware support that is. ;-)
