Could Windows Home Server be Microsoft’s iPhone?
section: windows, for your questions: KezNews forum, 2.8.2007
Microsoft just might have a hit on its hands with Windows Home Server when the first Home Server models debut this fall.
Run down the check list:
* Relatively quiet development period, followed by short and seemingly successful beta. Check
* A product that users actually want and understand. Check
* Potentially cool form factors. Check
Is it too much to call WHS Microsoft’s iPhone? I think it’s likely the closest Microsoft will come to a product with built-in popular appeal. (I’m doubtful that “Big-Ass Table,” a k a the Microsoft Surface, has anywhere near the sleeper-hit potential of Windows Home Server.)
What would make Windows Home Server a guaranteed home run, in your book?

whs is a must have for all nearly all home. i think it'll sell alot more than the iphone
simply because people need it; they don't need the iphone.
why do they need it? what does windows home server do exactly? i don't know anything
about it and can't be bothered googling it.
the average user can hardly use the current windows xp and now vista operating systems,
so really they don't have a hope in hell of understanding the concepts of a server
solution.
what averae user needs a pc for central storare, limiting user rights
etc, when they have that already in with their own little pron storing pc's?
it's a nice idea, the techies will love it, but the average home user probably wont even
understand what it's all about...
