Office Communication Server

Is the worst application I have ever installed in 20 years. Exchange server was a piece of cake to install and configure.

Very little is automated in the OCS installation. The failure messages are not very clear and its nearly impossible to figure out what is wrong.

First error: windows media not installed. It took forever before i figured out i needed to install the Desktop Experience crap on my server. (WTF? Why is it needed on a server?) Then it halted on an activation error. After another wasted  few hours, i found an article that it was a hotfi that needed to be uninstalled.
