Home Server saves the day!
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.
