I think that where Mac Mini might be useful in production is if you are using enterprise class servers for apache web serving and for the database hosting and run a bunch of Mac Minis in between *only* for WebObjects app serving that need no more than 1.5GB per instance. IMHO, Mac Minis can be economical for this scenario since they are redundant (assuming the same app is running instances on a bunch of Mac Minis). You don't need OS X server on the Mac Minis either.

Just a thought.

YMMV, Kieran

I had to go to the hosting center for the Mini exactly one time - to set it up there. Since then it is running without any trouble.

But you ARE aware that the disks in a mini aren't exactly server- grade, are you? How do you run backups? Handle disaster recovery? Restores in general?
