Apple Updates

Always fun to see updates to Apple hardware. The iBook update has been anticipated, the general feel seems to be that now updates to the PowerBook line are coming sooner rather than later. There is also a new model for the Power Mac G5 line, a lower end single processor system. The update that really makes me drool is the updated Xserve RAID. The only major change seems to be the drives used, instead of 250GB models you can opt for 400GB drives. This bumps the potential storage over 5TB!

The retail price for a nice dual processor Xserve G5 and fully built out Xserve RAID is around $27k. Not bad I’d say. Makes my current setup at work using 250GB drives seem rather plain 🙂
