Microsoft Hyper-V Beta is now available for download!

There has been a lot of progress made on Hyper-V since the Tech Preview that shipped with Server RC0 and RC1.  The entire system is much more stable and performant.  Even better, installing Hyper-V is now a great deal easier.  You no longer need to apply any hotfixes (those pesky .MSU files from RC0 and RC1) before you install Hyper-V - it's now fully integrated into the Role Management tool from the start. 

Secondly, installing Windows Server 2008 in a Hyper-V VM is now a much better experience.  The Integration Components are now part of Windows Server 2008 and are installed automatically in a Hyper-V VM. 

Last, but certainly not least, installation of the Hyper-V role is now available on Server Core.

I'll post more information about the new Beta release later on, so stay tuned!
