Runs fine. Setting up, the Computer Name tab GUI is similar to Vista..which naturally was a few more steps than XP/2K/NT4.

Just like they did with Vistas release, MS will release some updates for 2K3 Server, and 2K8, to introduce some compatibility for some things like GPOs. (firewall control for example)
