Waiting to test: Windows Server 2016 Technical Preview 3 Build 10514 Essentials and HyperCore Edition WZOR posted screenshots of this one
Is EPT still a requirement? (It was with the first two previews.) Yes; it's mostly a quibble with new deployments (due to the ubiquity of EPT moving forward), but it IS an issue with upgrades of existing servers (lots of those lack EPT).
Are there any options to get rid of the god awful contrast free border colours etc it's been stuck with since 2K12R2 this time? Always loved the server line and this has already seemed a lot more privacy respecting than 10, would love to get back to using it full time but... well, without my eyes wanting to throw up.
You can at least set it to a not entirely garish dull white now, and taskbar colour options etc exist. Still a few very buggy parts (Privacy settings and much of Settings in general just close when clicked), but after an hour or so of tweaking (Windows Update service needs killed to stop it, Data/Telemetry etc, , a few Windows 10 scripts (TNBT, Toggle Tweaker), the Peerblock list and firewall rule changes... there is literally not one single byte going in or out that isn't related to something I am personally doing. I can sit and look at the ethernet status and that really is the case. Very, very promising so far. Low amount of junk running in the background, excellent RAM and CPU usage apparent... It's good.
From the WZor .nfo: *This may & may not be the same as the one that MS releases next week for public consumption.
I have installed and it is some what better than earlier TP releases. Still settings are having issues.
Having a bit of an issue with games (eg GTA V, Kerbal Space Program) on this edition even having done all the usual "convert to desktop" sort of stuff and the latest Nvidia 10 drivers installed. There is a noticable heavy judder that isn't present under 10, and the CPU and memory are nowhere near being fully used when it does happen. Anyone else experienced this? (...And please, can we avoid the usual "wah it's a server it's not meant to do that" rubbish for once from those who don't understand what a wonderful gaming OS these can make? Cheers.)
Hi folks, Skynet isn't Genisys, it's Win10: mirror.co.uk/news/technology-science/technology/windows-10-watching-you-fans-6187498 What do you think? Is the server edition being spied on as well?

I think you can categorically assume everyone here is aware of it many, many times over by now. Also as said just four whole entire posts above;
Here's a fun one. With or without the Hyper-V role installed Virtualbox will not run. At all. Stops as soon as you run it, even in compat mode.
