Windows "When Microsoft announced Windows Home Server earlier this year, it was greeted with a mixture of curious disdain and eagerness. Some questioned what the product offered over existing solutions, while others welcomed it with open arms. It's at once hard to explain and easy to understand what Windows Home Server is, but it's worth getting to know the newest addition to the Windows family."

Because it is a better home server than both XP and 2003 SBS, and it costs less than SBS?

I don't understand the question unless you are an anti-microsoft zealot (in which case I do understand the question)

Well, it's clear that there are no alternatives for WHS as a home server besides XP or 2003 SBS, unless of course we are anto-microsoft zealots, in which case I understand the answer.
