[Fed-Talk] A suggestion for X-SERVEs

After cutting my hands to hell, a lot (and I mean A-LOT) of fowl language, and wondering how the same people who developed the beautiful powerbook could come up with the X-SERVE rack mounts... I came up with the following request:

Can Apple PLEASE include the little metal piece that allows a person to mount the "square peg" in the rack?

I don't know what the official name for it is, but it looks like a little metal piece with a hook on the end of it... As I sat in the server room installing *5* XSERVES with 5 XRAIDS by MYSELF, Dell was in the rack next to me with that little piece laughing as I tried to lift and mount these things on my own.

Next time I will pay for a service company to install the machines to the rack - but I didn't trust any of the "currently available contractors" to mess with my XSERVEs. I think i will stick to programming :)

Typing with one finger, as all the others are injured,
Mike
