moss 2010 features:

The new features in moss 2010

First we will see what all system requirements to go for moss 2010:
 SharePoint 2010 will only be available in a 64-bit version. This change is not limited to servers.
Developers running on 32-bit hardware will need new machines.
 SharePoint 2010 will require a 64-bit version of SQL Server 2005 or 2008 (2000 is no longer supported).
 Not all applications written for SharePoint 2007 will work in 2010. Certain APIs will be no longer available.
Others will be deprecated.
 The basic flow for many tasks as changed. That, coupled with the laundry list of productivity-enhancing features means that any 2010 deployment should be accompanied by training for users, administrators, and developers
 No support for Internet Explorer 6 anymore – only IE 7 and above (XHTML 1.0 compliant)

SharePoint 2010 is much more usable out of the box. The new ribbon interface is intuitive and familiar to Office users, and the product is much tighter, but the need for customization and integration is same.
