One of the most interesting things I've seen, lately, is a hosting company that uses stacks of Mac Minis running OS X Server. They may not be the thing for mission-critical services, but for day- to-day web hosting, they are far better (IMHO) than the typical WinTel or Linux white box systems that fill colo facilities. Need redundancy? Plunk down another $500 bucks! One of Apple's coolest products, I think. -- John
