What is the best server?
My Business is going to get our first server. We are a print shop and have half Mac and Windows machines. There are right now about 10 computers that will be on the network. We are looking at a Dell PowerEdge 400 SC at with Window 2003 Small Business Server @ $2199.00 and a G5 Xserver $2999.00. Does anyone have an opinion or suggestion?

Where I work we have a few G5 servers and a few Dell servers. It is much easier to administer the dell servers than it is the mac servers. If you want ease of setting stuff up i would go with the dell. The mac servers are nice, but if you have a problem it usually involves calling apple to figure out whats wrong

I would go with Windows Server 2003 from the trial that I use it is very good I am more than sure that it will be able to keep up with you and most of all allow you to do more with less.
