If you don't subscribe to SQL Server Magazine (or didn't pick up the specific issue some other way), you've been missing out… you don't yet have the SQL Server 2008 System Views poster. Well, lucky you, it is now available for download from Microsoft. Now get out your $30,000 wide format color plotter and print that puppy up. Or convince your boss to get it printed at FedEx/Kinko's. Or just enjoy it in PDF / XPS format. In any case, you can download it here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=531c53e7-8a2a-4375-8f2f-5d799aa67b5c … I have one on my cube wall at work and it really does come in handy sometimes (usually during post-lunch brain f^Hcramps).

I am a passionate technologist with industry experience dating back to Classic ASP and SQL Server 6.5. I am a long-time Microsoft MVP, write at Simple Talk, SQLPerformance, and MSSQLTips, and have had the honor of speaking at more conferences than I can remember. In non-tech life, I am a husband, a father of two, a huge hockey and football fan, and my pronouns are he/him.
Thanks "Trish McConnell", I was desperately looking for it. Just ordered one.
Just an fyi…printed copies of the poster are also available for sale at Left-Brain.com (the same people that publish SQL Server Magazine): http://www.left-brain.com/product/tabid/63/p-97-sql-server-2008-system-views.aspx
