Re: If people weren't locked into Windows Server, Server 2012 would be toast as well
Actually, 2012, despite the ugly UI, came with some long awaited features - i.e. a far better hypervisor, CA with updated features, and so on.
There are also some important changes both in 8 and 10 (USB 3, better SSD support, and so on), but unlike some server features, most users barely notice them.
