Think again - both Intel and SIS have removed AGP support from ALL of their upcoming chipsets - Via is the only p4 chipset manufacturer with both AGP and PCI-Express support for their upcoming chipse. So if you still want to use you're shiny new 9800xt on the next motherboard you buy, you better make sure it's a via chipset p4 board, or an AMD board.
we do. our entire school district does, because we have over 1500 macs in the schools (elementary & High school) that are running os 9, and are licensed for os 9 software. past that, the vast majority only have 96 megs of ram, and are g3 based (ie g3 AIO's, imac's and blue & white g3 towers), leaving out OS X as an option.
That, combined with the ridiculous amount of time and effort and money involved in installing os x and buying & installing more ram, and training staff & students across the entire stinking district is totally unreasonable.
I'm curious about what 10.2 server adds from 10.1.5, because the previous versions of 10 server have been worthless for every purpose i've had.
Mac Manager hasn't worked since before 10.0, and still doesnt in 10.1.5 - i'm sick of it. the product DOES NOT WORK. Netinfo is constantly squirelly and unreliable. the DNS service leaves quite a bit to be desired as far as stability, and having programs randomly quit at any given time is totally unacceptable.
