Hi Terry,

Will HP be bringing this new model to Switzerland in 2009?
They completely ignored Switzerland so far =(.

I have home built server for sharing the pic and Hp ex485 for back up, music and personal remote access… The Ex495 may be worth for streaming movies to PS3

i built my own server instead of going HP. But i think i'm in love with all of the Mac support HP is doing. Any way of getting the HP software to work on a home-build WHS?

The new server is all well and good. My origional model is working great.
What I want to see is the same support from HP as they are giving the new systems.
Seems that they promised a major update to our software… I popped almost 700 bucks for my system and it will be a cold day in hell before I do that again. Being a newbie to the server systems at that time …I was under the impression that "Mediasmart Server" meant I didnt have to by a buch of crap to stream to my TV etc. Oh well sorry for ranting, Im feeling a bit neglected

ya but do the cpu and memory upgrades and its just like the 485/7

also i wouldn't be so pushy for the latest update 2.5 and the latest (3.X ?)

but they upgrade the servers faster than microsoft upgrades windows

Thanks for listing : ?
