Windows Server 2008 will have an SP1 label

I came cross an interesting blog entry that said that Windows Server 2008 will have SP1 label already applied to it. Take a look at http://blogs.msdn.com/iainmcdonald/archive/2008/02/15/windows-server-2008-is-called-sp1-adventures-in-doing-things-right.aspx

Now, how will this effect people's rule not to install a Microsoft server, until SP1 is released (or did the rule implement this version scheme due to that rule :)

Firefox 3 Beta 3

Firefox team released a public Beta 3 of the new version of Firefox 3 browser. Here are some first impressions

• Pretty stable, didn't have any stability issues yet. Beta 2 would crash on some very basic pages
• It is FAST. As in like really, noticeably faster then Firefox 2 and IE. Complex pages like iGoogle, MSDN, etc... show up instantly
• The URL dialog is nicely improved. You now get a dropdown with recommended URLs based on both URL and page title.
• It passes the acid2 test

Some minor annoyances

• Old add-ins and themes do not work
