I am sorry but this is really dumb.
Having worked with the Xserver before it was discontinued [1] it was frustrating having to deal with ''special'' HW, Licenses(Xgrid, etc.) and old libraries(apache, python).
I am emotional and frustrated but not improving MacBooks, lame MacBook pro and iMacs not sure how this will help. Too late too little.

- valleyer 10y agoToo late? This has been a product since 2000. This is just the newest version.
- angry_octet 10y agoThey have just completely given up on anything except small business. The complete lack of a real MacPro or Xserve is abysmal. And the new feature is just an iCloud cache -- something only small business might use. The idiocy of how painful it is to manage a pool of ipads on a corporate network is the worse part. In particular because they can actually be locked down and secure and hence a perfect corporate device.
- mtmail 10y agoIt's entirely possible MacOS Sierra Server is also frustrating to work with but I wouldn't base that on experience from 2002-2004 when the hardware was still PowerPC-based (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xserve https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xserve). The OS is not too late, there has been an update almost every year (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MacOS_Server https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MacOS_Server)
