Sad but true... However, I must note that the $6000+ music server does have a nice milled aluminum fascia (not sure if aeronautical grade). So it's probably worth the extra few thousand dollars. :-) Lets start a business folk. We can get it done for $3000 and undercut the competition. We'll even throw in 8GB RAM and have the option for 4TB of storage!
