Colocate Your Mac mini

Posted by michael on from the first-to-market dept.

Pfhreak writes "Pure Static is already offering a service to colocate your Mac mini into a rack for those who want to set up a server on the cheap. Unfortunately, according to their FAQ, they're not planning on creating a Mini supercomputer. Which could be good news for those of you that are working towards being the first to set up such a cluster who have purchased a couple pallets of Minis, but haven't had time to finish setting up the cluster."

    When I read the headline it looked like "Colectomy your Mac Mini"

    That sound's painful and I'm sure it would be against the reverse engineering clauses in your license agreement.

    Tish, boom - I'll be here all week.
