G5 Xserve was recently released ...
http://www.apple.com/xserve/

1U, 19in rack mount unit, with multi-platform compatibility (mac / win / unix) with a lot of power. Bascially, a very attractive proposition, especially for hi-rez recording and DVD post.

From reports the unit is selling very well. (Sure, its price and features are aimed at medium to large enterprise.)

For the realists: if you had one of these in yor studio, how would you - given your particular config. and work processes - make use of it? I'm very curious about how people would take advatange of its features.

For the dreamers: ...do you visualize something that is a like half-step between the Mac Mini and Xserve, an upgradable 1U media server / external processor hub that keeps older model G4s in action (i.e. rather than buying a whole new computer to get the power) and is mobile and robust enough for "out of house" production projects...?

What are your thoughts?

No, I was talking about Mathematica, as Photoshop, Painter, 3D stuff or Final Cut Pro/Avid… as potential buyers for a node, the people using these need power. The bruter force the better. laugh.gif (for once… wink.gif

About technologies, they do exist, it's only time real time processing goes down the ladder from military to people who have real thing to do (than squash the head of the neighbour wink.gif cool.gif
