Guided Tour of Apple's Leopard Server OS

Linked by Thom Holwerda on Thu 7th Dec 2006 17:05 UTC, submitted by Ralf.

"Recently, I had a chance to sit down with a few folks from Apple who gave me a guided tour of Apple's upcoming server operating system, which is slated for release sometime in the spring of 2007. Mac OS X Server 10.5, or Leopard, will be the seventh release of the server operating system since 2000 and the second version to run natively on Intel processors."

now that mac is on intel I would like Apple to have the same kind of variety that you have with HP or Dell. I don't want a mac mini and I can't afford a mac pro. More power than I need but what a nice box! Can't we have a mac pro form factor with mac mini specs?

Why would you want a box 20x bigger than a Mac mini, but with Mac mini specs?

Unless you want to change the graphics card...
