First Vista now Windows 2008

O.K so it is built on the NT 6.0 Kernel. Big deal. I am looking at the features and after 5 years of Microsoft pitching this product I don't see what all of the fuss is about. I checked out the new remote desk top and terminal services. The hyper -v for v.p.s was the only thing that looked cool to me.
So tell me guys what is it about Windows 2008 server that you like ?

Windows Server 2008, which purportedly cuts power consumption by some 10 per cent.

Microsoft ran a test on a virtualised version of Windows Server 2008, only to show that a grand total of four Windows Server 2008 virtual machines, running on a physical IIS 7.0 Web server, with 20 active clients, still used less power than just one Windows Server 2003 IIS 6.0 Web server.

Compared only to its own products there is something greener about Windows 2008
