I know when I've been licked.
I've been licked.
Because it's Hurricane Season here in Florida, I've come home to blinking clocks twice this week. The first time, the server was fine, so I didn't think about it.
Tonight, I decided to rip some more music to the server. Hmm...the server isn't on. Turn it on (and yes, I've priced a few UPS systems. The one I want is $100; I'm not buying the cheap crap at Wal-Mart. I want the battery backup to last longer than 15 minutes.)

Crap. Reset the BIOS. Move battery backup to top of purchase list. Log into server.
ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!!
I give up. I been licked. If you'll excuse me, I'm now looking for my last 120 GB drive. I'm going to clean it off and install Unbuntu onto that.
Windows Home Server is absolute crap. Linux, here I come.
