Judging by the current numbers, I'd say you voted 10 times. Tongue out

This is a real hard one, since there are a number of great improvements. Can I list them in order of importance? LOL, since I do not use Media Collector, or web streaming, here are my picks in order of importance:

1. Enhanced Home Server Console (I am all about the GUI)
2. Support for eSATA multipliers (why take this away from the EX48*?)
3. Better Mac integration

With the Mac integration, I don't really mind using the OSX disc for OS recovery and then using Time Machine to return user profile info to "normal." And the EX47* update offered by HP includes a Mac MSS console. My Mac users (wife and daughter) have no interest in RDPing to the server.

EX470, 2 GB RAM, 2x500GB, 1x2TB, pooled
Alienware Area 51 m5550, 3 GB RAM, Windows 7 Ultimate x64 RC
Macbook 13"
Homebuilt AMD Phenom BlackX4 8GB RAM, Windows Vista Ultimate x64, 250 GB system, 1 TB RAID 0 data
