A thousand dollar mini, eh?
The cost of the server license? Otherwise what market is it targeting? Mini servers aren't an Apple invention.
I know people will knock this, but keep in mind it comes with OS X server, which sells for $499 by itself. This isn't a bad deal at all.
It's a product with no target market.[ Read All Comments ]
