I joined this community to point out a incorrect or incomplete statement in an article that appeared when I did a Google on installing Exchange 2007. The article http://www.msexchange.org/tutorials/Installing-Exchange-2007-Part1.html states in the System-wide Requirements section, "One of the bigger requirements is that Exchange 2007 requires the domain functional level to be at Windows 2000 native mode (see figure 1)."

This statement should be appended to say "as a minimum" as the current meaning has a very different meaning and caused me a moment of panic after I raised my domain function level to Windows Server 2003.

Agreed. "Or higher" at the end would have been better, since Windows 2003 is obviously acceptable. Rodney doesn't write articles any more, but I'll ping the site admin to get this changed.

Sorted. Thanks to Michael for altering this.
