Andrew- I read in a release no charge per user. I wonder if they will offer educational discounts on OSX server. This could take the schools by storm. Training Math teachers to administer NT isn't working out very well. Actually, training CS geeks to administer NT doesn't work much better, but they get paid by the hour and don't mind so much what simple things take days to do. WebDrone (still trying to install Polaroid slide scanner on NT--- making progress. 3 Weeks in to it.)

You have to absolutely love the fact that Apple has revised the pricing of OS X Server from $999 to $499. Which means its only overpriced by about $400 dollars... I think OS X is good enough that it has a chance of catching up, if it is made competitive with Linux. At $499 it doesn't have a chance.... On different news, the price of iMacs at MacMall has dropped yet again, to $888. The old rev B iMac is back to number one in best selling position, while 2-5 are peripherals (no iCandy or G3s). MacMall seems to be selling around 100 old iMacs a day. Still they have plenty of them (9767 to be precise). New iMacs continue to be in short supply.
