This is true, but my point stands, if they're going to make these gui tools,
why not make them accessible, regardless of the fact that it can be done with
the cli

Back in the early days it was all command line (terminal) driven anyway so
there really isn't much that can't be done that way. It's just going to be
easier to click the start button next to Websharing in the gui than to bring
up the terminal and type /usr/sbin/apachectl stop. Similar things for server
which makes admin easier with the GUI tools. That said, I suspect they would
make the apps accessible, but I haven't tired it and I don't know anyone who
has actually paid out for the more expensive OSX Server.

that they are. If this is the case, could you imagine what implications that
could have on blindness network administration?

From what I've read in the past the main differences with server are some
nice GUI configuration tools and more services turned on by default. That means
that with regular OSX you can do pretty much the same thing if you don't mind
playing around in terminal a bit and are good with search engines. For web
servers there is a common appliance viewpoint called LAMP or Linux, Apache,
MySQL and PHP. The standard Mac already has all these things, just not all
turned on, so there is very little in the web dev world you couldn't do on a
stock Mac or MAMP setup. Macs also include an SSH server so you can ssh into
another Mac and execute commands remotely. While all the users/groups/rights
stuff would probably be easier with a GUI on OSX server, there is nothing
preventing anyone from doing the same thing the old fashion way on plain old
OSX.

According to Gordon Smith on the Mac access list it is not very accessible and
you'd be better off sticking with Snow Leopard.

Hi Listers,
I've just been looking at the mac mini server machine that is being
advertised on the apple website.
A mac mini 2.53 processor with 4gig ram and runningt the snow leopard
server os.
Has anyone used this OS and how usable is it with voice over?
