Aaron, thanks a lot for the information. As to the support of Cisco’s NAC, if I read this white paper (PDF) correctly, then you make NAP and Cisco NAC work together on Windows XP if you install the Cisco agent. If you run Vista then you don’t need to deploy the Cisco agent.

Greg, yeah I was referring to administration when I talked about the user interface. It seems you are what they call a very early adopter

Administration in itself on Vista/2008 should be appealing. Or is administration considered UI.
I run a small business IT department here. With Server2008 on a couple of servers and Vista on most of the workstations, have made a world of difference in both uptime and TCO. They both just work.PERIOD

While RDP and NAP are/will be available for XP, RDP 6.1 has network level authentication and remote Aero/WPF which is not available on XP and the NAP agent in Vista has support for Windows Defender and Cisco’s NAC which the XP version does not.

The performance improvements that the new IP stack and SMB2 bring should make these platforms appealing.
