The Home Server is such a dumb idea. When the home server goes down, you wont be able to talk on phone, watch tv, listen to music...
and we were led to believe that one of the cool things about dsl and cable was that you could be online and use the phone at the same time.
I wonder what happens when you are working in your home-office, have an important BD call going on with a prospective client and your kid downloads the latest virus to your home server...
According to the article its likely to happen 1000 to 100,000 years from now. Wikepedia says RS Ophiuchi is around 1950 light years away from us. So I guess there is a chance its happened a 1000 years ago and we might get to know about it in another 1000 years. So yeah, dont hold your breath.

Perhaps the missing piece in You OS is a bootable browser image.
