The Xserve can be configured with up to two Quad-Core Intel Xeon 5400 series processors running up to 3.0 GHz with 12MB of L2 cache per processor. It features up to 32GB of 800 MHz DDR2 ECC FB-DIMM memory for a 64 percent increase in memory throughput, two PCI Express 2.0 expansion slots, 3TB hard drive, built-in accelerated graphics to drive up to a 23-inch Apple Cinema Display, 10Gb Ethernet cards and Leopard.

Here is some fresh dope on the much awaited iTablet, Looprumours has an exclusive source who is saying that the device will be running on a customized version of the Leopard and will be somewhere between a laptop and a tablet to be used as a personal Mac communicator. The iTablet will sport a mini optical disc drive and like the iPhone come with an accelerometer so it can be operated in multiple directions. Interestingly, you will also be able to plug in a mouse, demonstrating that you can use many different input methods. Wireless keyboard, mouse, stylus, and finger. Coming to the design it will be big, black and shiny, more like a big iPhone. However it wont be bigger than half the size of a Macbook’s screen.

Finally the iTablet will use both the sides for information and use solid state storage. This is about it so lets wait for Macworld.
