A tale of installing a Xserve

I'd just like to point out that you're deducting the tax you paid on the xserve, not the actual purchase. Saving 7% isn't that big of a deal, unfortunately.

I don't know about the US, but in the UK if you're self-employed as a tech writer you'd have no problem claiming an Xserve, although you'd have to do it over three years. You wouldn't even need to do the review, it falls easily enough within the sphere of your allowable deductions.

I installed an XServe Cluser (I'm too lazy too look up the name, but it has one removable drive and no optical drive) in a cabinet and it took awhile today. The main part was just trying to figure out the exact mounting brackets and getting everything to fit. Once it was all in place, I slid it into place and damn - that thing looks nice! The software fumbling had to wait until Monday morning though...

I would love to find a simple article that tell you about the different uses of a XServer.
