But things cannot be created from nothing. Energy and elements would be necessary to make the required molecules. I think Snowcrash by Neal Stephenson had a cool 'replicator' technology. As I recall, there was a 'pipe' that delivered the elements to your house and then your home device put them together into whatever you wanted. Basically there was an Element Service Provider. Wealthy people had a fat pipe, so they received many elements quickly and could make things very fast. Poor people could only afford a small pipe, consequently their items might take weeks or months to make.

OpenMail was sweet. It could scale way beyond Exchange while providing all of the same features.

But you don't need the GUI on the server. You can manage AD and Exchange from a Workstation running MMC.
