Hey Paul,

If you didn’t get to drop into MacWorld. Not only does Drobo plug into the USB port on the AirPort, but at the show they announced DroboShare, which provides a NAS front end for Drobo. So now you can network attach your Drobo with minimal fuss.

As I understand it, Microsoft’s WHS logo program prohibits partners from embedding wireless/router functionality. I may have that wrong but if its true, I hope they loosen up abit so OEMs can get more creative.

Apple missed it here. Real MAC users should just buy a Drobo and connect it to the Airport Extreme.

Also a question for you folks. When WHS was released it was meant to work with MAC but apple had to drop a protocol from Leopard. Is that protocol now back with Time Capsule? If so then Mac folks should start using WHS.
