The unit I own is the fastest Xserve G5 model sold. The 2.3Ghz "Dual Processor" G5. Unlike its "cheese grater sibling" the G5 Quad the DP Xserve is based on the older G5 lineage, featuring '''''PCI-X''''' rather than PCI-E slots. This significantly reduces its expandability as 64-bit PCI-X slots are limited to approximately 266MB/s of ban..." current Tag: Visual edit

When you submit an offer, the seller has 24 hours to respond. Turns out, if the auction has less than 24 hours remaining '''''and zero bids''''' eBay will auto-accept the "Best Offer" instead. So that's how I got a G4 Xserve for $50 (the seller wanted like $300) The Xserve G4 I have is the [https://everymac.com/systems/apple/xserve/specs/xserve_g4_1ghz.html absolute base..." current Tag: Visual edit

The PowerMac G5 '''''Quad''''' in particular is easily among Apple's most unloved and slapdash engineered products. Due to me taking the suggestion of a friend far too literally (ilu Ben please don't hate me) I own '''''seven''''' G5 Quads '''Despite this only one of them is functional!'''
