Maybe I'm oversimplifying here, but can't you just share any folder or printer from any OS nowadays? I understand this doesn't get you that central shared storage device, but you can easily get files from one computer to another without buying extra equipment.
I just discovered that my new router (D-Link) has a USB SharePort, which lets you plug in any USB storage device and make it available to your whole network. Another simple solution even for less network-savvy folks like me.
