@Aaron and @Dave,

Hi Guys,

I usually just ignore these kind of posts. the ones that heavily utilize the following are more often than not robot posts by anti-MS tollers.

The key things to look for are things like:
1. Heavy use of HTML formatting
2. The constant mention of the data corruption issue and the constant use of KB numbers, even though the data issue has been fixed.
3. The constant mention of certain key words:
a. “Anti-competitive”
b. “propriety software”
c. “monopoly”
d. ” “wow” experience”
e. And the big one that is the dead give-away: “Open Source”

Anytime you see any of these things, then you know to just ignore it and not waste your time.

“The Home Server Show is a Microsoft propriety software pusher!”

Pure genius, seeing as how its focus is a proprietary Microsoft product.

Also, congratulations on learning how to use html formatting in your comments.

Actually, the fix for KB946676 is publicly available via the PP1 beta program.

The Home Server Show is a Microsoft propriety software pusher! Anti-competitive corporation that continues to abuse it’s monopoly.

For goodness sake, the WHS thing still isn’t even fixed with a proven Microsoft data corruption defect (KB946676) that was promised way back during last year to provide the very much needed resolution. It now the end of June of 2008 and just where is the resolution?

WHS is “Broken” and it was made that way by Microsoft! Can’t they at least fix what they made to work as advertised?

WHS should be named “Hype” instead, being how it’s just another “wow” experience failure that was promoted by Microsoft which it has NEVER delivered!
