The image of "successful data import" does not load for me; the address is
http://www.sqlservercentral.com/articles/Business+Intelligence/69380/DataImport2.jpg
but nothing is found.
I've tried PowerPivot once on a Windows Server 2008 box with SQL Server 2008R2 CTP, Office 2010 Beta loaded but I connected to a SQL Server 2005 instance and was able to load and tabulate a table with more than 24 million rows. Nice!
