Windows Server 2008: A Foundation for Small Business

Microsoft has long had a Windows Server small business-focused server. Apparently, this isn't small enough, as Microsoft now has the Windows Server 2008 Foundation, a server for the tiniest of shops.

This server is very traditional in that it handles print and file sharing. But like any modern hunk of software, it's Internet-friendly, handling Web hosting and remote access.

I've heard good things about Microsoft small business servers. What's your experience? Feedback welcome at [email protected].
