Some info over the next version of Windows, Windows 7 which is planning for 2010. Full list of features and editions:
Component Delivery Platform: Also known as CBS, this is the core infrastructure utilized for defining Windows SKUs, optional components and for the setup and servicing of Windows. The current plan of the CBS team for Windows 7 is to provide aggregation, installation, and servicing constructs for Windows elements (components, drivers, etc.), including a set of interfaces that can be used by internal and external customers for a wide variety of operations ranging from SKU construction to install, uninstall and servicing of Windows features. This infrastructure will be leveraged by Windows partners to build their features and optional components for Windows 7.
Data Protection and Encryption: In Windows 7, substantial investments are being made in Bitlocker and EFS to drive toward Microsoft’s vision of data being encrypted all the time, everywhere, so that customers know their data is always secure regardless of said data being located on a local hard drive, company server, or portable device.
ClickOnce: Microsoft is working to solve core problems in network application deployment and declarative system extensibility by designing the next generation application deployment framework required to advance smart, “friction free” client application deployment to the next level. The technologies focused on by the Windows Application Deployment team are packaging, management, installation and servicing for applications in both online and offline environments.

I just finish installed Windows Server 2008 R0 over Microsoft VirtualPC 2007. I see small noticeable change during installation that is Server 2008 R0 forces Administrator to change password before start Server for first time, contrast to what I experienced with Beta3. This look more close to Linux system.
Another thing is, because I test it on VPC 2007, it support VPC Tools better than previous Beta. I can move mouse across host and guest OS without touching release bottom.
I will dig into more detail later this day.
