A Mac in Your Rack

Apple is scheduled to announce new rackmount servers today. I've been around the Mac world long enough to be pretty cynical about this, but here's what I'd like to see:

  • 4-way processors: They've been talking about it long enough – let's see that multiprocessor OS finally take advantage of 4-way G4s
  • 1Ghz+ G4s: I can dream…
  • 2Gb+ memory capacity
  • Hot-swappable drives
  • Cost: ~$6k
