Here is my server.



It is struggling to run Server 2008 now so not sure if it could handle 2012. Might end up using it somewhere int he cloud instead.

Currently running WHS v1 and only has 8 GB free !! There is a shiny new 3 TB drive waiting to be installed, an upgrade to 2012 would be the icing on the cake !!

Another Microserver in the mix.
Running ESXi with a 2008 lab, would love to start running 2012!

Technically it's what you use to connect to what it's running on :-P

It's also what I'd be using if I won :-)

When did we get a Microsoft Data centre in NZ?  Bit of a commute each day if it is overseas I would think - you'd get to work 2 hours after it was time to go home :)

also, seems to be missing basic developer  facilities like a coffee machine.

And just when I finally dug up a photo of my home lab :-) Bit out of date, the two HP boxes are long gone, the lab has moved, and the switch has been upgraded :-)
