Received a new MacPro today and within a matter of minutes, had a brand new server up and running.

Dual Proc 2.8 Quad Core Xeon Processors (that's 8 cores)
4GB of RAM
500GBx2 RAID 1 (mirrored HD's)
500GBx1 TimeMachine HD - backups up in real time the working HD up to a month.
Mac OS X 10.5 Server

(RAM and HD's were purchased elsewhere. I don't pay Apple for components. Took all of 2 seconds to swap/add the disks and ram).

For those that don't know about TimeMachine in OS X 10.5, you should look it up. It's way past coolness.

Gotta admit, that was by far the fastest and easiest *complete* server I've had the pleasure of setting up. Two layers of backup, out of the box.
