RE: Minis running the Asylum ?

Munix => Mangled Unix, it's my acronym.

We're running a standard MacOS and it's got most everything you'd want. The primary issues are config files versus Apple's plist which is mostly annoying for figuring out how to do little things like changing default ports. Then, installing packages and finding them can be a challenge. It took a while to get them configured to be compatible with out FreeBSD configurations. Updates are a nightmare as Apple tends to break everything for what we're using them for. Despite their quirks, it's been a good move.

Power usage is stellar. We use only about 100 watts for 5 Minis with 16GB, 512GB SSD and 1TB HD plus a router and Dataprobe which gives us auto-ping checking and remote reboots.
