MS Small Biz Server R2 Recall

This shouldn't affect most end users because the OEM versions of Small Business Server 2003 R2 only went out in July. Means the software shouldn't have reached too many (if any) end users as yet. But in case you got your hands on it somehow and were thinking of upgrading...don't.

According to VARBusiness, Microsoft issued a recall of the upgrade after a routine audit discovered significant portions of the code were "non-final". Redmond says it plans to finish the non-final code, swap it for the crappy stuff and re-issue R2 later--no word yet on specifically what 'later' means.

But hey, they could have just let the crap go out the door and fixed it after we all started having problems. Better this way in my opinion.
