Yep there is - confirmed with their supplier if they were smoking something
but they are selling server 2011 for small Business <g>

Hence My question here, I did not believe it either.
Maybe some sort of scaled version of server 2008 maybe ?

Windows Small Business Server (SBS) 2011 is based on Windows Server 2008 R2
Technology. IIRC, Microsoft released it by the end of Q1 2011.

Hi Andreas,

Because it's based on Windows Server 2008 R2 Technology, SBS 2011 is only
available as a 64-bit operating system. If your application is UAC-aware
and Windows 7 compliant (and the WOW64 emulation layer to run 32-bit
applications is enabled on the system), there should not be any problem
(IMO).
