first i found out that apple stopped making xserve HD's in the size that i want. so then i order the HD's that they do have which are larger than i needed. then when the package comes with my order, i open it up and find 2 monitor adapters. i send back the adapters and they tell me i have to wait 2 months for the HD's.
finally this morning i get a message from Apple telling me that they no longer make the drives.
apple sucks. i'm getting a dell, dude.

- dehryll0
oh boy, did i learn my lesson.
so, which dell do i get? do i get some of that "longhorn" on it?
- Tyrone0
HA HA HA ...... you said long.
- abizzyman0
longhorn doesn't exist.
but check the Dell XPS series... loving mine.
- ericPowell0
get one of those dell g5's with a dell cinema display.
c'mon man seriously, that's like owning a Ferrari and buying a kia just cause Ferrari stopped making a part. can't you get a third party drive?

longhorn doesn't exist abizzyman?........you obviously haven't seen me in a thong.

isn't the XPS for extreme gamers? i don't know if i fit into that category.

yo eric....we ended up getting 2 bigger drives for the same price. it was just kinda gay that they sent us the wrong parts then stopped making the drives we ordered. but fuck it im all about this "longdick" thing everyone has been talking about. then i want to see if i can cripple my network with one of those cool "viruses" CNN keeps talking about.

The only comparison of an Apple to a Ferrari is that they're REDICULOUSLY OVERPRICED.
I've worked on Mac's for over 10 years... and PC's JUST AS LONG. I did tech support on PC's for two years... AND ALL THE MACS TOO....
... and my conclusion is that MAC's have a nicer EXTERIOR design and 'prettier' interface - but their interior setup is NOT SUPERIOR in comparison because of hardware availability and ability to update it yourself (to name just a few things).
On top of that - Mac's cost an ARM AND A FREAKIN' LEG... and can't compare to the hardware you get in a PC for the same price.
The only thing you can't get on a PC is Final Cut Pro... all that other imovie and iphoto shit is useless junk (like a lot of window's components - useless junk).
All other software is availble on PC - and SO MUCH MORE.
You mac users who can't agree that PC's are a better VALUE are nothing but SHEEP. On board the bandwagon... and never willing to do a little research or agree to reason and facts.
Mac's are nice - but there are PC's that far excell mac's... and they're more than comparable in price.

one word. unix.
all i need to say osx is FAR superior to ANY os microsloth has EVER put out.
(CAPPED for emphasis) :-p
tyrone, i feel your pain bro, keep it on the real.

the XPS is solid for gaming, yes.
It has the video card and processor speed you want for graphics... that's why I said go with that... not too forget the fact that it has an 800mhz front side bus which makes having multiple programs open possible - you barely notice any difference in speed of application.
Dell says 'gamer' because they're trying to sell to those folks - because they're more of them out them out there than designers (but if you look closely, Dell does mention 'graphic intense software')
XPS is a designer's answer (especially print designers w/huge 300 dpi files).
