I already have one. Works really well the way its setup its easy for everyone to use. Once the OS is installed you just leave it alone in the corner and all it needs is power and a network cable, the rest is done on the connected pc's. You install a program called connector on each pc connected to the network and that gives you access to the console for the server and it looks after the daily backups and access to the shared files on the server.
Got quite a few good features like when it does a backup say 3 pc's have the same software like office installed which we do it will only keep 1 copy backed up to save hdd space and if something happens to your puter you just put the restore dvd in the puters drive and it will connect to the server and restore your pc including the os and all your software and files just the way it was b4 it stuffed up.
You also get your own .homeserver.com site so you can access your server anywhere there is a net connection and upload or download files over the internet to the server.
I really like it myself since ive never used any server software b4 i found this very simple to setup and use and even my mum doesnt have any problems with it which is really saying how easy it is to use.
