  • RE: About when will SQL Server 2012 be released?

    Both SQL Server Connections (Mar 26-29) in Las Vegas, and SQL Bits X (Mar 29-31) in London are listed as official "launch" events, so I would assume it is planned...

    We do have ASK.SQLServerCentral.Com if you really prefer posting to a place with a reputation system.

    The thing is, some questions lend themselves to that...

    S Hodkinson (1/18/2012)

    Now that I am 'semi-retired', I still read the editorials every day and trawl through the forums. Am I sad or just keeping the brain going?

    Eric M Russell (1/18/2012)

    However, in a corporate or government IT environment (100 - 10,000 employees) this is problematic, because help desk now has to support multiple operating systems. Also, it's...

    I certainly wouldn't be happy if I were expected to buy a laptop or similar

    I can understand this, but is it fair? Lots of industries are required...
