As mush as I personally find the new user interface to be absolutely awful (and even more so on a server O.S.), we'll soon have to put up with Windows Server 2012 (formerly Windows Server 8).

So, let's start with the basics: which Microsoft products do actually run on it?

I've been looking around for a compatibility chart for a while, but couldn't find one. On the requirements/support pages for various Microsoft products (even for the latest releases), Windows Server 2012 is never mentioned at all.

So, what about...

SQL Server
Exchange
Lync
SharePoint
System Center (CM, OM, DPM, VMM...)

And so on?
