This is why I really wonder what Apple plans to accomplish with their server products... They have such a long way to go. They are clearly gunning for small business, but I'm not sure how that potential will translate into these sorts of numbers. Overall, I just wonder whether Apple is taking a hit here, or recognizing its ROI. There is a lot of competition in this space, both hardware and software wise.

Why is there always money for war, but none for education?
