I'm an apple maniac now.. but a single processor, single ide drive and 256 megs of ram for 3k? thats really really overpriced.
i just built a dell on dell.com that is equivalent to that and it came out to $1700 with tax and a next day onsite service plan (which i dont need.. so i assume i could build a similar server elsewhere for a few hundred bucks less).
Apple's problem has always been expensive hardware.
