Windows Home Server Preview

jmke · 12th January 2007, 12:45

At the 2007 Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas this week (see my special report), Microsoft previewed its long-awaited Windows Home Server (WHS) product, a Windows Server 2003 R2-based server for consumers that dispenses with the complexities of most Windows Server versions and provides the core storage, sharing, and remote access functionality that digital media and home networking enthusiasts require. It's an innovative and exciting product, and I'm happy to finally be able to discuss it. Chances are, if you read this site regularly, you're going to want Windows Home Server.

functionality of the Home Server can be replicated by most experienced PC users easily, but the all in one plug and play functionality of backup and restore, as well as health monitoring and user/content management really makes this OS desirable if you have multiple PC's with either XP or Vista installed at home.
