whitepaper Family Dollar Selects Windows Server, Saves Millions of Dollars2009-10-20 Microsoft
  Celebrating its fiftieth anniversary in 2009, Family Dollar required a more robust merchandising solution to accommodate its continuing growth. In 2007, Family Dollar began the transformation of its merchandising tool set to a planned implementation of the SAS Integrated Merchandise Planning solution. Family Dollar faced a significant investment in new hardware, software, personnel, and maintenance because SAS recommended an AIX operating system; an infrastructure with which Family Dollar has limited experience. In a creative effort to reduce costs, Family Dollar partnered with SAS to explore the option of implementing a large scale solution on the Windows Server 2003 Datacenter Edition. This would provide substantial savings, flexibility to scale with commodity hardware, greater interoperability with other systems, and cost-effective future growth.

whitepaper Iconic Media Giant Cuts Time for Management Reports From Months to Days2009-01-01 Microsoft
  B92, Serbia's largest independent broadcaster with a network covering 70 per cent of the country, has more than 500 employees in different business units. Due to rapid expansion and complex internal structures, the IT system could no longer efficiently process the allocation of internal revenues and costs for a diversified portfolio of business units. After an unsatisfactory trial using PeopleSoft software, B92 decided to implement Microsoft Dynamics NAV business management software. Based on the Windows Server 2003 operating system, it quickly brought benefits and simplified business processes. The fortnightly payroll calculation, which used to last 15 days, now takes just three days. Business analysis reports that once took up to two months are now available in five to 10 days.

whitepaper NATO Accelerates Windows Vista Deployment Using the Windows Vista Security Guide2008-10-09 Microsoft
  As NATO prepared to migrate its desktop and laptop computers from Windows 2000 to Windows Vista, it needed to make choices about how to create a security baseline based on the configurable security settings in the new operating system. In the past, this process could delay the adoption of a new operating system by up to 18 months after it had been released. NATO avoided this delay by using the Windows Vista Security Guide to deploy its security baseline prior to the release of the product and to benefit from the guidance on deploying specialized security systems.
