WHS retail software

saxnix · **28th November 2007, 04:27 PM**

Can someone please confirm if WHS is going to be available as a stand alone OS? Once I was accepted into the Beta testing for WHS, I had a machine built to run it on, but now that I only have 12 days left before it expires, I can't seem to see it for sale anywhere as a stand-alone software package. Do I now have a $700 paperweight?

Thanks for tip. I guess I will try the shop that built it to see if they will sell me an OEM for it. I will have to see how I go.

We sell it on it's own. Look under Software->MS Server OS

Have a look on staticIce you will find loads of people selling it, price starts at about $200

Thanks to you all for your suggestions. I ended up picking up a copy for a little under $200.

Now, to start investigating re-upgrading again to Vista???
