It's definitely the way forward. My spec is a X2 4200, 2GB of ram (could easily get away with 1GB), a basic mobo and a £30 case with PSU built-in which I chucked all my existing HDDs in. You can build that easily for just over £100 and then get the OEM version of WHS for around £70 I think.

Currently my main desktop PC is the computer with all the files that get accessed around the house - so this pc is always turned on.

I'm very tempted to look into this option now that I've got decent desktop and HTPCs set up.

@John

£100= $200, so by the time you add on the OS and a bigger HDD you're almost there.

I noticed one of the PC mags (PC Pro I think) currently has an article on building a PC for £100. I'm not sure if it was up to spec for WHS but it looked pretty impressive for £100!
