Death of Silver

[lxt]

I would have preferred to see Apple keep the Silver, Gold and Platinum pricing system for Logic - Gold was around $499 when I bought it, a decent compromise, especially when I didn't need the extra features (eg, 5.1 capability) that Platinum editions provided. However, this means I either spend $999 (which I can't really afford), or $299 for something that won't have the features I need.

Well, an Xserve doesn't take that much space. Anyone ever attempt to install a rack-mount computer into an entertainment center?
