| Windows Server 2008
As well as supporting the latest hardware technologies, Windows Server 2008 is easier to install and manage. ZDNet UK's (the sister site of ZDNet.com.au) lab tests, we found that the installation process has been streamlined and it's now much quicker and easier to install a new server system. The installation utility asked for our country and licence number, and then a dialogue box offered full or Server Core versions of the Standard, Enterprise or Datacenter editions. Had we run the installation tool in an existing Windows Server 2003 system, the option to upgrade or make a clean install would also have been offered. After selecting the target disk partition, the installation tool proceeded to the end without stopping. .

Natchez pharmacy burglarized
NATCHEZ — When two men broke into Bill Ernst's pharmacy, they appeared to have only two things on their minds — get drugs, and get out. “They just busted out the glass and walked through the door," Ernst said. Ernst Pharmacy was burglarized just before 1:30 a.m. on Wednesday morning. Adams County Sheriff's Deputy Maj. Jody Waldrop said the two men used what looked like a pipe to break out the glass on the door. Waldrop knows how the two men gained entry to the pharmacy because Ernst's son had the entire place wired with security cameras. The alarm, also installed by Ernst's son, notified the sheriff's office of the break-in and deputies were able to respond within approximately four minutes, Waldrop said. And while deputies were able to respond quickly, they were not quick enough.

Nader Runs, Obama Responds Wisely
Ralph Nader is running again for president. After four previous bids, mounted in varying forums and with varying goals, Nader is used to the slings and arrows that will be tossed his way. He is conscious and committed. He will not back off. He knows how to campaign in the face of a firestorm of criticism. Above all, he knows how to make himself heard — even when almost everyone who guides the political processes of the nation wants to shut him up. The latter knowledge will serve him well in a 2008 contest where the man who is either a national treasure or a national frustration, or perhaps both, may find himself more marginalized than ever before. Nader is running for the same reason he has run in the past: Because the likely nominees of the two major parties do not begin to meet the standards that might reasonably be asked of progressive contenders in 21st-century America.
