When Apple took the wraps off its newly designed Mac Pro last week, after getting over the initial shock at the radical new design, some began to wonder what an entire server farm of the black bullet style computers might look like. Now one company has not only committed to offering such a solution, but they've gone as far as posting a design of what the new Mac Pro server array will look like.
Mac Stadium, a company that focuses much of its efforts on offering Mac mini-powered server solutions, has announced plans to offer new Mac Pro-powered hosting and cloud services. Even though Apple has yet to even announce the price for the new computer, the company has already committed to acquiring 270 of the units, citing the smaller footprint as an advantage for server farm architecture. The old Mac Pro was $2,499, but due to the high-end specs and design upgrade some are speculating that the new Mac Pro price could reach as high as $4,000.
Looking like a cross between some sort of laser cannon array and the ominous human energy pod farm from the The Matrix, the design ensures that whoever spends the cash on an entire bank of these new Mac Pros will have the coolest looking server farm ever.
