Please let this be cheap

Intel is showing off a really slick twist on the tablet PC at a conference this week.  Gizmodo has something about it here.  They are calling it the UrbanMax and to me it looks perfect!  I'm not sure the funny rounded edges look right but…

Unraid! It's on!

Yep, I've switched from Windows Server 2003 with RAID5 to Unraid.  I agonized over spending money on this but it really came down to one thing.  How difficult will it be to add incremental storage when I run out of the 2.25TB I currently have?…
