  • Apple turning to new server suppliers to cut costs - report

    Wouldn't it be nice if Apple made their own servers, running on their own OS...
    I guess this is telling us that Apple CAN'T make Enterprise level equipment. They are so concerned about making Cradle to Grave hardware for their customers but are unable to make an Enterprise Server by the thousands to meet all their Data Center needs. It doesn't have to run OS X (Server) but it can be custom tailored to be power efficient and robust enough to meet all the demand needs of iCloud, iTunes, & App Store. You can't tell me that the company that created servers that created the Fastest Super Computer Cluster in 2008 at Virginia Tech and they only used G5 Xserves to accomplish the task aren't able to build an enterprise level server with all their added in house experience in 8 years.
