Is Windows Server 2008 launch date being delayed?

There have been some questions posted regarding Windows Server 2008 release date and if the announcement of the RTM moving to Q1 of 2008 will impact the actual launch date itself. Here is a snippet from a post on the Windows Server Division Blog:

"So you might be wondering how this affects our launch event, which is scheduled for February 27, 2008 in Los Angeles. The answer is simple: it doesn’t. We’ll be there in LA on February 27 and at venues around the world in the following days and weeks. The launch event will feature Windows Server 2008, Visual Studio 2008 and SQL Server 2008."
