RE: Windows Home Server Release Candidate

["Phil Harris" <phil@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Remember when W.H.S. was put forward as a solution to a problem recently
and
someone said that it was working well for them?

How does the quote "It's not going to be possible to do an upgrade
install
if you already have a previous version on your server - meaning you'll have
to wipe your OS AND data drives on your box to install. However MS say that
from this release forward upgrades will be possible..." hit you?

Hope no-one has much data on their W.H.S. machines...

Phil
