I can confirm that VirtualBox on Windows Server 2008 is the same like on
Vista. I by myself run W 2008 as a Workstation and it runs smoothly with
nearly every app runnable on Vista. Only some applications, especially anti
virus programs, firewalls and nearly the complete portfolios of Paragon and
Acronis and O&O Software are makiing a check at install if it is a server OS
or a desktop OS. And If it is the wrong it doesn't install itself ...
