We are preparing to implement Drupal 7 for our content management, and are considering both WAMP and full Windows (I don't know what that is called). Are there as many extra modules if you use the full windows with SQL Server modules? Do you just use the same modules and change them somehow to work with SQL? Any insite is appreciated.

thanks

There is a reasonable amount of abstraction of the sql in Drupal 7 which means most modules will work out of the box, no alteration required. You will need the SQLServer database driver installed to make use of that database, though.

We have several sites running on Windows without issue.
