Imagine if every time Dell released a new PC with new hardware that was better than the previous they announced it as "The most powerful ever!" Boy, that would get annoying. The words "apple" and "server" in the same sentence makes me chuckle a little.
You've got a good point there. I mean, it wouldn't make a hell of a lot of sense to release something that you had to pre-qualify with a phrase like "Not quite as powerful as the last one, but it is still a damn good machine thats costs at least as much as before." That's just not how technology works. Hmm.
'The words "apple" and "server" in the same sentence makes me chuckle a little.' Are you kidding? I think Apple was made for servers! They're unfeasably expensive, unimaginably powerful and you know you're never going to get one!
They're unimaginably powerful? Are you actually serious or was that sarcasm? What does an unimaginably powerful computer do? Does it bend the space-time continuum; maybe it can tell the future? I can imagine quite a bit, so that would be one power computer if its "unimaginably powerful".
"Are you kidding? I think Apple was made for servers! They're unfeasably expensive, unimaginably powerful and you know you're never going to get one!"
Apple servers are barely scarping by in the lower tiers of servers, which would be reflected by their cheap price.
If you need some real server power, Apple wouldn't be able to hold a candle. For instance our VMWare infrastructure, a Apple server couldn't even dream of running that.

Wow. With a powerful Apple server like that, you could run really awesome MMO games of Diablo 2 and Burger Time.
