It has been making waves on the net for a few days already, and I don't want to keep anyone deprived from this utter piece of brilliance. "Mommy, why is there a server in the house?", a children's book made by Microsoft to 'help your child understand the stay-at-home server'. "Big people have a server at the 'office'. The office is a big place where people go and do boring things." Not everybody will appreciate the twisted humour, but I sure do. Utterly brilliant, this. Update: There is more!

They do say "share music". I'm reasonably sure most families dont have a lot of music they have the copyright for.
It's even more fun of you go to the WHS home site. There's one interview with a guy who says he burned their entire music collection and stored it on the WHS to share. Hello copyright violation.

How does so much talk about "sharing" (even if its a joke) fit with Microsoft's and industry's crusade to practically demonize everyone engaged in "file sharing"?
