Sharepoint 2010 Preliminary System Requirements

The Sharepoint team have released some interesting public information about the pending 2010 release, specifically relating to system requirements.

So a confirmation, its 64bit only across the board. So throw away your old kit and embrace the new world.

SharePoint Server 2010 will be 64-bit only.
SharePoint Server 2010 will require 64-bit Windows Server 2008 or 64-bit Windows Server 2008 R2.
SharePoint Server 2010 will require 64-bit SQL Server 2008 or 64-bit SQL Server 2005.

They are aiming for xhtml compliance - that will be something to see.

Service pack 2 on MOSS 2007 comes with an upgrade checker to prepare you for a move to 2010. In a nutshell, if you have customised the life out of your 2007 instance then you may want to prepare for some pain if it tells you your not in a good state.
