I am having a dilemma and would appreciate some feedback. I need to purchase a new web server for an existing job... And to repurpose when the job is over. I am an Oracle guy, and an apple guy... So now that Oracle 9i is offered and supported natively on Mac OS X I am very happy. However, I also have been using CF for so long now for all my applications it has become a crutch in some ways. I do all my coding on my PowerBook in DWMX. I love Apple products and would love to use my mac for everything. I realize there is a hack to port CF to OSX, however since it can not yet run on Apache there, and a few other bugs, I am reluctant to purchase the Xserve for the job as I would like to do (even though I could run a W2K server in VPC6).
The server will be repurposed as my main webserver/application server after the initial project and I would buy an Xserve in an instant if I knew there was a Mac release of CF around the corner. Perhaps if CFMX did not run the way I needed it to natively (via the hack) in OSX, I would think it would run ok in VPC6 W2K... With the dual 1ghz g4 processors and 2GB of RAM. Any thoughts or comments? -Drew Harris ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Get the mailserver that powers this list at http://www.coolfusion.com
