    Server 2008 as a WS OS

    Hey all,

    Does anyone here run Windows Server 2008 as a workstation OS?

    And if so -

    Do games perform well? Any issues experienced that don't happen on Vista or XP?


    I'm contemplating giving it a shot.....since it's basically Vista minus the bloat.

    at work, we have it as a WS OS on 4 notebooks.
    It plays starcraft just fine, but that is the only game I have seen on it.
    Sleep, eat, conquer, meditate, repeat.
