At the 2007 Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas Microsoft showed a preview of Windows Home Server (WHS), a new server product aimed at the 'home user' market. Although WHS has been built on Windows Server 2003 (SP2) code, the user interface has been totally redesigned, and basically revolves around a simple web-based remote management console.
Microsoft is targeting WHS at (broadband) users with two or more PCs at home. Currently when you want to share files across your home network, or even make files remotely accessible, you have to be thinking of getting a Network-attached storage (NAS) device, or setting up a server (either Windows or Linux/Unix). Both of these solutions have their drawbacks in terms of user functionality (NAS) and complexity (server). Microsoft attempts to solve these problems with Windows Home Server.
