Didn't get to test the RC's. Luckly now I don't have to. Will try updating the server at work to see whats new. The MMC stuff appeals to me.

Used the last beta and the RC. This is a major upgrade to WSUS, even more than 2.0 was to 1.0. Good going MS you've made life easier for a lot of admins out there.
