Because everyone has been eyeing up features like push email and a proper calendaring server since Snow Leopard Server was announced. We all use iPhones here, so it has been frustrating to see non-Apple-based technologies get preference in the iPhone user experience (Exchange) while we have gone the 100%-Apple route and are left in the doldrums.

Full price upgrade to Snow Leopard Server for what is essentially bug fixes, or features that should have been part of Leopard Server, is a bit of a nasty sting.

Plus, it just makes sense for us to be running the latest releases if possible.


$29/client - that's not going to break the bank! Neither will $500 for server honestly, but it really doesn't sit well to be having to pay full price for something we already own a legitimate licence to, but which we want to move to the latest release for bug fixes and a handful of enhancements.

Man you are crazy to upgrade to 10.6 server. I would make sure they would before I even try.

The full price before was $999 with the upgrade being $499. You got screwed but other not so much.

Ill watch this forum and you username to see what problems you run with the 10.6 server. Hope there isn't any and ill be walking down to the apple store to upgrade the Xserve.

Rant here "*uck you apple and M$, Apple for the 10.6 server and M$ for your Server 2008 R2. Thanks for making my fall season a pain."
