- VIA protocol is discontinued.
- SQL Mail facility removed need to use outlook database mail
- As most of the Windows OS is going to 64bit, and mostly in future there will be minimum of 64bit OS available. So possibility “no AWE” aware on 32bits, means memory would be more than 4 GB, and 32-bit Hot Add memory support.
-
