Windows Home Server 2011 RC release

Not that anyone cares. It seems like it is pretty unanimous that people will either be staying with Windows Home Server v1 or moving on to something like Amahi with Greyhole built in to replace the removal of the only real feature of home server, drive extender. Ok, so the backups were nice too, but not worth keeping the product for.

I find it just unfathonable that Microsoft would get 97% feedback that home server without drive extender is no longer a product and still take it out. There is really only one possibility, they are killing home server to move people to small business server essentials instead. Since, you know, the clientelle is so overlapping...oh wait...

Personally, I am virtualizing v1 home server and calling it a day, though Amahi is definitely tempting.
