A. Yes. Although the new Hyper-V hypervisor technology is a key feature of the Windows Server 2008 core operating system, Microsoft will still provide customers the choice of deploying Windows Server 2008 without this technology. Windows Server 2008 Standard, Enterprise, and Datacenter licenses without Hyper-V will be available at a slightly reduced estimated retail price from their regular license counterparts.
