Lots Happening
Well there appears to be a lot happening in the world of Windows Home Server. Yesterday (the 5th of November) was the official launch date (not to be confused with the official Partner launch day last month). There are lots of WHS boxes announced, lots of add ins and software, including the official release of Diskeeper 2008 for WHS and also an updated MS WHS website.
Check it out http://www.microsoft.com/windows/products/winfamily/windowshomeserver/default.mspx.
