I'm also on a roll today... I have 4 "servers" home and ScottC is always giving me a hard time about the power consumption...my wife hates the space they take up and I'm not partial to their heat output... So I replaced them with 4 Mac Mini's today... of course 1 us running Tiger server and 2 are running linux...but needless to say, I'm pretty partial to the hardware and OS X
Now Im curious. I was thinking of getting a fairly beefy system for personal use, mainly for photo editing. I like Aperture and will get Photoshop soon enough. I would prefer a Mac (due to aperture) but was thinking of getting a Macbook Pro which is pretty pricey for a loaded one. Maybe I should go with multiple minis? How well can you make a cluster type arrangement out of them? Thanks.
