Hi.
Now that Apple has a real and great server offer, what about the client ?
I say that since a G5 is a work-station, and 'i' or 'e' Macs include screen. What Apple should release now as hardware to invade the business sector is a light client. Some very light G3 or G4 with a basic video-card, no sound-card, small hardisk, floppy disk ( sorry), and DVD-R/CD-RW driver. No screen. The system should be Mac OS X Client.
This light computer should be around $350 to $500.
Then with the power of Mac OS X Server, and the X Serve, it would be easy for a network administrator to set up a cheap and powerful network.
If I was Apple's CEO this is what I would probably plan ...
Thank you,
Pierre.
