What do you suggest as a good after life for this monitor (with VGA connector) ? PS: I've already thought of turning it into a TV by adding a DVB-T->VGA adapter. I find these things are really expensive (typically $150).

The enclosure will be able to accept up to 3 SATA drives (SATA I and SATA II) supporting transfer rates up to 3 Gbps. The main use for the drive array will be for external storage for the Book Server running Windows Home Server . This will allow the Book Server to retain it's look while allowing easily accessible storage and expandability."

The OEM comes as a package and is meant for System Builders, but anyone can install this version whether they a re a system builder or want to utilize a spare PC. The package comes with an OEM Server install disk, Windows Home Server Connector software and the Home Computer Restore CD. Reinstall of the server is a simple task, but you have to make sure you prepare in advance."
