OK, I can agree with that, but I would add that an extra four drive  
bays for a RAID 5 array is mandatory too.  Also, four PCI slots, dual  
displays (both dual link, of course),  are essential.  It needs to be  
able to withstand the impact of a fall from an airplane at 40,000  
feet.  It shouldn't weigh more than half a pound.  Anybody who would  
pay more than $50 for such a Mac has more money than brains...   
Sheesh, what an idiot.
