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."

you don't have to use tweakUI to put My docs on a separate hdd or partition.

Just right click on 'My Documents' click on 'properties' then change the target folder location.

Half the crap people use 3rd party apps for can easily be done in just a few clicks with the default Windows apps... ;)

TweakUI is made by MS, so I wouldn't really consider it 3rd party, but you're right; you can right click on My Documents and redirect. This doesn't cover your desktop and app settings though. I don't know if TweakUI addresses that or not, as I've never used it for that purpose.
