These third party add-ins are more for the geeks, and yet WHS is a dumb down appliance made mostly for them starter edition types... Even WHS is in coflict with itself, being how it's not built from the ground level up, but in truth from Windows Server 2003 adopted with a WHS management console. What's ironic is that Firefox doesn't charge anyone for third party add-ins called plug-ins while everyone affords WHS to experience an on going development as mostly beta testers here. I just don't see the advantage of paying to be a beta tester, as everyone can obviously use FREE open source code applications such as Firefox or Linux and still get updates for free, just as ubuntu provides and supports for FREE.
