Microsoft today confirmed at Tech Ed in New Zealand that tomorrow (September 4), Windows Server 2012 will be available for purchase and download as planned. As with the release of Windows Phone, New Zealand will be the first country in the world to be able to purchase and download Windows Server 2012 due to their position near the international date line, with more countries available as the clock strikes 12 am.
Previously, an official Windows Server 2012 RTM ISO was leaked to the public, enabling people to get access to the latest server operating system almost a month in advance. However, as always we recommend downloading the OS through official channels like you will be able to tomorrow.
Server admins, ready your servers.....
