Good to see geekzone not announcing the WHS Vail Release Candidate download being available.

I assume this is in protest due to the removal of Drive Extender in Vail.

I think it just reflects on how low is the level of interest in a version that does nothing more than a good NAS could do by itself...

Yeah there isn't much interest, a lot of WHS v1 "publicity" was driven by hp who aren't on board with v2.

Death by mismanagement :-)

Should never have merged WHS with the business server line. Was never meant to be a business solution, hence the H in WHS - HOME !!! Dagnabit !!!
