The fact that Microsoft has long conceived to implement plans to "enter every home" is known even to schoolchildren. Pressuring the atmosphere by the Redmond around the system for installation on the
Windows Home Server home servers is another confirmation of this.
What is the WHS , will the system be good or bad, do home users need it? All of this is fading into the background. Because Windows Home Server, contrary to (or, on the contrary, according to?), Microsoft’s plan was “leaked” to the retail sale. Previously scheduled date.

Previously, there were “rumors” on the Web that products based on Windows Home Server, as well as the system itself, will be available only on August 27. But, according to the authoritative resource
Ars Technica, WHS can now be purchased online. Microsoft has some time ago provided its software product to distributors, as well as OEMs, who, in turn, are developing ready-made server solutions based on this operating system. And now Microsoft is saying that there is no release date for Windows Home Server. Deliveries are made, and manufacturers and distributors can be guided solely by their own schedules. And on August 27, it turns out, just the start date of the technical support service.
Despite the appearance of the Windows Home Server on sale (in the UK it costs ÂŁ 88.74; in New Zealand, NZ $ 253; in Germany from 130 130 to 14 148 from various suppliers), customers can get a system for at least another week do not count. In fact, the product is new, focused on the home is not a professional user. Therefore, supplying it without full technical support is a matter of considerable problems.
Total. Microsoft officials are smiling sweetly and saying that "they are glad that the version of Windows Home Server for developers has gone to the people." Buyers who have already ordered the system and are rubbing their hands in anticipation of the deployment of a “simple and convenient tool” are nervously smoking aside and seem to be waiting until August 27th anyway. OEMs are in a hurry to assemble home servers (turnkey turnkey solutions) that will go on sale in about a month. And above all reigns his majesty PR and slyly grins. Like, how many people now still want to at least look at the WHS. And there is already set at home. And then share the file archive. Hmm ... Yes, and backup does not hurt ...
