Hello,

Is the Technet DVD 100% the same then the Original One?

My Customer wants to install 4x Windows Server 2008, but the Licence and
original DVD from Microsoft will come in about 30 Days.

How long can i use Windows 2008 without entering the right Key?

Hello dtts,

Yes, you can change the key afterwards. Did it myself without any problem
with Vista. But you have also a license agreement for TechNet, which belongs
to a single license or server license and if you read it, it states you can
use it, but not for production environments, if i am not wrong.

Best regards

Hello,

thanks for your Answer,

of course your right what you said, technet is not for productive
environments.
i thought i only use the Technet DVD without any product key and want to
know if it works for about 30 Days?

The Second thing is if there is a difference between the Techent DVD
(Windows Server 2008) and the Original One from Microsoft Volume Licensing....

Hello dtts,

The software should be the same.
