Bodog has corrected me on a statement I made about re-installing OEM over the trial WHS. I apologize for my miss-statement.
Go Bodog Go!
a server reinstall does keep all backups and will also keep the user data. What needs to happen is for user accounts to be recreated however if they are the same username and password then it will be back to the previous state very quickly. The other requirement is for add-ins to be reinstalled - they will be still there but need the reinstalled (and settings will be restored eg Disk Management Wireframe will be restored)

Hope this helps listeners out - and provides some relief for those looking to upgrade or do a server reinstall (NOT a NEW install though) on their existing WHS
Regards
Bodog
