No... JET is still there...
SQL Server/MSDE was used for "Access Data Projects" but I think the
last two editions of Office have dropped ADP support (you can still /link/
to SQL Server as an ODBC source, but no longer have direct/invisible
access).
JET is a file-server database -- just like SQLite; each client is
directly interacting with the database file rather than sending requests to
a stand-alone server program where the server is the only program accessing
the data files.
