Agreed, excellent deal. Power Pack 2 is adding some very handy features for the media-streaming crowd, too. WHS doesn't really get the credit it deserves in some circles - it's probably the best MS OS release in five years.

Damn it, you made me break down and finally buy it.

Great deal, I bought it back when it was almost $200 and am still very happy with it.

Fixed with PP1. PP2 just came out last week.

There was, it affected users who edited files hosted on the server.

I have WHS on a machine with no monitor, will it upgrade to PP2 by itself of will I have to manually do it?

It should auto-update, but you can check by opening the WHS connector console on a client machine, going to settings>resources will tell you what version you are running. If it doesn't show PP2, go back to general and check for updates. It will require a restart of the WHS as well as your client machines when it updates the connector software.

I finally bit as well. This is perfect for my Shuttle KPC!
