just saw the server version is intel only as well... DOH three of our four xserves just got obsoleted, two are G5s that handle the majority of the work one handles mail and web the other handles file sharing. the 3rd is an old G4 it has 4 drive bays so that's our retrospect backup server which will stay as it is, still running 10.4... I'm not even working those G5s hard at all so there is no need performance wise to upgrade, but I know my boss is going to want all the new stuff in 10.6 for his iPhone I wonder if that'll be like 10.4 and 10.5 with open directory incompatability or will 10.5 and 10.6 talk to each other and will iCal 2.0 server require the clients to be on 10.6? (has all the features we've been waiting for to replace the crash happy now up-to- date clients) I'm gonna have my hands full this fall (unfortunately 10.6 will come out right at the beginning of our peak season too) --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
