Does Windows Server 2008 R2 have an official, or unofficial nickname / acronymn?

W2K8? Shorthorn?

Let's coin one. How about 2K8R2 ? Sounds like a droid :) – Chris W. Rea Nov 13 '09 at 20:02

Centro (mid-market range) and Cougar (small business) were codenames used for the current server family while it was under development.
