Star Windows Home Server Released Into the Wild
Linked by Thom Holwerda on Mon 20th Aug 2007 21:10 UTC
Windows "With Bill Gates' announcement earlier this year that Windows Home Server would be available as a 'system builder' product (that means 'OEM' to most hardware geeks), enthusiasts and system builders alike have been looking forward to its release. With several different rumors being floated last week regarding when Windows Home Server would hit store shelves, we checked in with Microsoft to get the full and somewhat-confusing story. The short version is: it's already out in the wild, but catching a copy from your favorite reseller may prove tricky for at least two more weeks."

"And 200 bucks? Who doesn't have 200 bucks laying around?"

Probably a lot more people than you might think.

For the market MS is going after here in the states, 200 bucks is nothing...it's certainly a lot cheaper than most people thought WHS was going to be. You can barely even get a decent edition of Vista for that price.
