Insider Preview, which launches today, should mean faster updates to help keep its business services on top of customer demands. It's also another sign of the company, gradually, contorting itself into a service company. It recently announced Microsoft 365, which combined Windows 10, Office 365 and the company's Enterprise software into a convenient all-in-one business bundle, and an easier (?) sell to IT departments.

The next phase, however, will depend on its Server users, according to Microsoft -- which is pointing users to its Insider program for both early access and more influence on future updates.
