I don’t but I know a friend who probably does, http://www.google.com/search?q=Windows+Home+Server+prices there are lots of hits but a quick glance didn’t reveal a price, digging deeper this was revealed…

Pricing and Availability
HP will release a Home Server (currently called the “HP MediaSmart Server”) in Q2 of 2007. It features a 64-bit AMD processor under the AMD Live! brand, and can be expanded to include as much as 6 terabytes of storage space. It also includes four internal HDD bays and four USB 2.0 ports.

In a Channel 9 video interview, Windows Home Server General Manager Charlie Kindel said that early Home Servers will cost about the same as a low-end PC, or around $500.
