[hlds] Dedicated Servers Hosting Console Players?

2008-11-07 Thread Brad
I really haven't found any proof of this or anything (it really is hard to get a firm grip on whether this is the case or not because the server files include a whole bunch of client code), but does anyone know for sure if our dedicated servers are being used to host Xbox 360 players? Obviously, t

You are misinformed. Windows 2008 offers no drawbacks compared to 2003. Microsoft did not give server 2008 the Vista treatment in terms of resource usage. Server OSes are really not designed to be trimmed down, unless you are interested in running Server 2008 Core, which might be a good option as
