This study from Jeff Jones blog show why the Server Core feature of Windows Server 2008 was so expected by security professionals. We can see a 40% reduction on the vulnerability numbers for a server running Windows if it was using something like Server Core. My main concern now is if software providers will enable their products to run over a Server Core server. It would be a shame to have this feature and can't use it because some piece of software demands Solitaire to be installed in order to run :-)
This is why we asked so much for Server Core
