Windows Home Server, Microsoft's tool for managing a home network of computers, has been updated with Power Pack 3, which includes an update for Windows 7.
Home server provides a central repository for files, including documents, pictures, music and so on. Those files can be shared among multiple computers on the home network. This latest version will be automatically installed if you have automatic updating turned on and are running Power Pack 2. In addition to working with Windows 7 computers, Power Pack 3 also adds improvements for Windows Media Player and better integration for netbooks.
Power Pack 3 is free. If you have a Windows 7 computer(s) now, or have bought a netbook recently, the upgrade is well worth it.
This is a great improvement for a trend that is already becoming very popular in the home: The Home Server software with 10 licenses is the most affordable thing that has ever come along for home and small businesses.
