Wow! Appreciate the article. I have concerns that the capabilities of the OS far exceed my own computer capabilities. Due to time constraints of seeing pts, running my own practice, and hoping to see my kids occasionally, I cannot aspire to dealing with my own website or email server. I think that I would prefer a third party (hopefully updox or similar) to host email, etc. I already outsource my billing and payroll. That said, It looks like most of the abilities of the sbs are wasted on me. All of my employees have the same access to the computer with the same limitations. I no longer have an office manager because she was arrested and sorry, can't trust someone with that again. So I am the administrator and all other users are equally limited. I want the server to speed function of the 4 computers and also to be able to do VPN. After speaking with the person who assisted me with my current network, he actually suggested just putting windows 7 on the server for now. If I later wanted to upgrade to a higher level, I could. We are thinking about RAID10 so that I would have mirrored hard drives. (If I understand that correctly.) Also, agree with the 8 gb memory.
I hope I like AC because I haven't even downloaded the demo as I try to get the hardware ordered!
THANK YOU! THANK YOU for all of your continued insights.
