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.

need it?

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.

Makes me smile....

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...
