Agree with Sott R, you want high end UNIX workstations, look at SUN products. Or DEC/Compaq/HP. Or IBM.

Please tell me your kidding. What does HP make that is more high end? Have you LOOKED at their systems? Honestly...?
Toady, I am aware that HP as well as IBM and others make computers that are much more high-end, I guess I misspoke.

I do think XServe does match up well with similar hardware products from HP, Dell, IBM and others though, but do admit it s a very difficult market for Apple to penetrate. The VaTech and other cluster projects would have been a fairy tale in the 90s.

I bet many of the other folks were not even aware of some of Apple's high-end systems and server products.

FWIW.

Best,

Kurt
