Only thing I can think of would be to hit up the Apple Store.  That
may or may not work; while Apple certainly does sell rack mount
servers, I have no idea if they keep them in stock in the local
stores.  Also, I don't know if he's willing to pay the significant
price jump involved with Apple hardware.  It is, however, the only
place I can think of that would conceivably stock it (and yes, I
checked MacAuthority's website, just to be sure).

It's really too bad Fry's Electronics hasn't built a Nashville store;
maybe with Google's arrival, Fry's will make an appearance here.
