Windows 2008 - ISO Eval

[wesleyw]

Is there anywhere I can download a CD ISO instead of a DVD ISO for the 60 day Evaluation of Windows 2008?

It doesn't fit on a CD.

???

Just stick it on a DVD/Mount it in daemon tools/Mount it in a VM

x86 version is 1783MB and x64 version 2539MB so no way it'll fit on a CD! The days of the Windows OS on a CD are a thing of the past!

I wouldn't worry too much, most Microsoft.com downloads are resumable.

Wasn't worried about the download I just haven't got a blank DVD-+R at present some are on back order lol. Downloaded the DVD and copied it to a removable HDD I'll install it from there.

I haven't looked at 2008 Server yet. Will it install without a serial similar to Windows Vista and XP SP3?

[wesleyw]

I'm trying that now I believe so as a 60 day evaluation.
