Few mac's have ECC..
Which was one of the big problems with the original G4 Xserve. They added it later in the G5 model, but I suspect much of the damage had been done. Most technical people, just ignored it after discovering that it didn't have ECC and the disks were low end ATA rather than SCSI. With the cluster/HPC version the stories changed to how unreliable the machines were.
At that point it seems only the diehards were willing to trust their data to apple server hardware and it died a couple years later.
