Windows Server 2008 Editions Released

Microsoft have announced that there will be EIGHT versions of the Windows Server 2008 operating system. There will be versions we know and love and some new ones. The basic breakdown is as follows :

Windows Web Server 2008 Edition
Windows Server 2008 Standard Edition (with and without Hyper-V)
Windows Server 2008 Enterprise Edition (with and without Hyper-V)
Windows Server 2008 Datacenter Edition (with and without Hyper-V)
Windows Server 2008 For Itanium systems

I guess the reason for supplying systems without HyperVisor (the Microsoft OS integrated virtualization technology) is to prevent them being sued by certain competitors.
