I have been fighting with 2008 for a few weeks, and i just couldnt figure out what i was doing wrong. We've got new hardware, new software, new cables, new pants, new everything. But its all slower and more difficult than 2003. I've seen complaints that the new commandline version isnt really pure commandline. Yes that sucks. And some of us want the GUI, but this sucks too - i permanently live inbetween: typing commandline code into GUIs . Microsoft: Just what are you playing at. 2008 is going to tickoff everyone.

I was hoping for more. Here is the thing, the server has 8 cores of 45nm Intel fury and is under almost no load. None of the core maxes during the backup. So even though it compresses, it is not utilizing the hardware available. It is just shit, plain and simple. Microsoft backup has always been half assed. I was hoping for more.
