I don't write these, I just receive them in my e-mail, and I figured it would be good to start sharing them with a wider audience.  This one came from a Microsoft employee named Jason, the title of the blog is the subject line of the e-mail.  Here is the text of the message:

OK. For all the crap I've been giving you guys for not having every feature I wanted, today I must laud you with praise. As advertised, the WHS just totally saved me from hours of work. For whatever reason, my wife's primary computer got a corrupt system profile yesterday, effectively "losing everything" from her perspective: outlook config, desktop files, documents, etc. I dropped the PC Restore CD in the drive and watched tentatively as it walked smoothly through a very straight-forward and simple process to let me select my system, the drives I wanted to restore, and then it took about 20 minutes to get us right back to the perfect state we were in on Sunday.

Thanks for making a perfect backup and restore user experience! I don't think that could have been easier or better.

The Windows Home Server World Cup results for April are in and Norway remains on top, with New Zealand closing the gap.  New Zealand is less than 100 units away from first place, assuming Norway stands still.  Windows Home Server has now been sold in 47 different countries around the world.  The top 8 countries are:

1. Norway
2. New Zealand
3. United States
4. Germany
5. United Kingdom
6. Denmark
7. Australia  
8. Switzerland

The standings are computed by taking Windows Home Server sales divided by the number of households with a broadband connection in each country. Updated standings will be published next month. 

The Windows Home Server team has solved a software bug that may affect files that are compressed using Advanced Attributes (NTFS compression).   NTFS compression can be enabled on an individual file, folder or at the hard drive level and is sometimes enabled by users to save disk space on a home computer.  More information on the bug and a link to download the fix at KB950190.
