With the release of the Windows Vista client operating system, and the upcoming release of Windows Server 2008 network managers face the prospect of integrating these next-generation operating systems into their current networks alongside computers running Windows XP and Windows Server 2003. Ultimately, customers will migrate their clients and servers to these new operating systems. Understanding, however, the dramatic network performance benefits that Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 deliver to clients with the specific issues of low bandwidth and/or high latency will enable network managers to prioritize their deployments to address their most critical problems first.
