@Terry Walsh - I'm looking forward to reading more about the availability of the new software for the prior versions of HP's Home Server line, since I have one and would love to able to add my mac machines to it, time-machine style.

LOL! Who would ever have expected a HP/Microsoft product getting the Best Of Show Award at Macworld. Great!

Any update from the HP booth on upcoming updates to the prior MediaSmart line (EX470/475). I’d like to get the same UI available in EX485 unit?
