* Windows 2008 : Managing made simple

Now here is something in Windows 2008 which will make managing the server a much simpler task.

The consolidated 'Server Manager' which allows you to do all the common tasks from one place. There was MMC earlier on similar lines but not as useful as this one. For power admins 'Powershell' is the way to go which is a complete command line/script based admin tool.

Here are some screen shots.

The landing page for Server Manager.

So we have all the management consoles here .. event viewer, perfmon, services, user management, etc.

More on Roles & Features soon.

Another productivity enhancer is horizontal navigation bar .. same as Vista.
