- lozaning 7y agoIf we're willing to be liberal with our usage of the word computer, I'd like to nominate the Xserve RAID. I still consider buying one to put in my home rack from time to time because they're just so damn pretty.
- xvector 7y agoWow, these look pretty. Image for the curious: https://www.flickr.com/photos/generated/99991779 https://www.flickr.com/photos/generated/99991779
- amatecha 7y agoAh man... this reminds me of the old Macintosh group on Flickr that used to be an amazing repository of Mac-related photos. It was around since the earliest days of Flickr and had amassed hundreds of thousands of photos. The admin randomly closed the group years ago and has never responded to messages asking about it :(

- lozaning 7y agoOh I've been plenty tempted numerous times. If the thing wasn't as power hungry as it is for the amount of storage it provides, I'd already have one. I've seen some mod/retrofit project that replace the guts with an mATX mobo and a sata raid card, but I've got too many half finished projects already.
- xvector 7y agoInteresting! I'd have to say it's one of the ugliest computers I've ever seen personally :) If we're giving awards for looks I'd have to say that the current MacBook Pros take the cake for me.
- tonyedgecombe 7y agoIt wasn't practical though, that arm used to sag and it's almost impossible to service.
