Server 2008 R2 licenses and differences to win 7

[caid602]

I wonder if Server 2008 R2 will run with the "old" Server 2008 license keys. Does anybody know?

And: Is Server 2008 R2 really equivalent to Win 7 as Server 2008 was to Vista? Is it as snappy and does it feature the new desktop enhancements?

There is no chance that the keys will be the same.
