G5 Xserve - Good Audio Potential? Options

[Tree Leopard]

G5 Xserve was recently released ...

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?

I have used the logic node function, and set up an xgrid network between my mac pro dual 2.6, and my mac book 1.8.Running pro tools LE with 25 tracks and several plug ins was more of a pian than a pleasure.Very latent, very glitchy, very unpractical.I had the same issues on logic pro useing the node function.as soon as I turned off the grid, no problem. same with the nodes.Its a great Idea, and maybe close to being a reality, but for audio apps not quite here yet.
