This hilarious book, a PR scheme done by Microsoft to cause a bit of buzz. I’d say it’s working quite well thus far. The book is actually real, not just a few photos that happen to be floating around the net, which makes it even more hilarious.
The inside cover mentions that the author does in fact have a PhD, however, they aren’t actually a real person. It also mentions that luckily the Windows Home Server is real. Thank goodness for that, I was really worried there for a second.
The book explains in detail why offices suck and what they do to “big people” and why it is a grand idea to have a home server. What they don’t mention is that now that you have a home server, you’re stuck at home with those short slimy things. I believe they’re called children.

I don’t get it… Do these home servers take care of the children while the parents are out?!? Neat! I want/need one of these! … wait…are these Child Services approved?
