Windows "Microsoft has started printing up the invites for the launch of Windows Server 2008 as it finally sets loose release candidate 1 of the long-awaited server operating system. Microsoft's decision to put a red ring around 27 February came as it released another test version of Vista Service Pack 1, the update it is banking on to breathe some life into the so-far zombified desktop operating system."

I can see it now, unstoppable hordes of vistas rampaging through cities, mindlessly killing and devouring the defenseless macs caught completely unawares. A ragtag group of survivors manage to clear a mall, and manage to live in relative peace as they defend their safe haven. Little do they know that roving, motorcycle riding bands of linuxs (linii?) are rampaging through the country, and about to loot their little piece of post-apocolyptic utopia....

EDIT: I can't believe I just posted that. my only excuse is that I am on my fourth straight cup of coffee (gearing up for an all-night hacka-a-thon)
