The answer is…Xserve (答案就是…Xserve)
After few hours of updating, we all know, that is the Xserve. Xserve is an attractive thing. One of my friends told me. that he saw a room of Xserves in a Japanese data center(Somedays later, he also bought few Xserves for his business).
Unfortunately, when the answer came out, I heard a lot of voices of disappointment.
Since iPhone came to the world, Apple has much more strange fans than before. They ask Apple for revolutionary surprises every time. People who “expect surprises”…what a contradictory! If Apple couldn’t satisfy them with the “surprises” they’ve expected, such as “iPhone nano”, “Mac Netbook”, “iMac touch”, then, they’ll be extremely disappointed. (Yeah, that’s extremely contradictory)
Poor Apple, those “Fans” won’t look at your enterprise-level product like Xserve, neither your innovation on software (like iLife 09), nor your advanced art of production (like MacBook Unibody), they even don’t care on iPod anymore. No matter what kind of revolutionary product you’re inventing, they just want a more tiny and sexy iPhone which can run Office, Full HD video, built-in radio, 10M Pixels camera with auto-foucs and macro and face detection and smile-shutter, Flash-game-able…..and a NetMacBook costs lower than US$399 with full functions and HDMI out and Full HD hardware-decoder and GTA4-able and Windows7-able (!)….
Sorry, I’m out of topic. Sometimes, I rather the iPhone would be this: (Watch the pic at the bottom of this post.)

經過了數小時的更新後，大家現在都知道，是蘋果的伺服器Xserve更新了。Xserve是很吸引的東西，曾有朋友告訴我，在日本的數據中心看到整個房間都是Xserve (後來他好像也向蘋果購入了幾台)。
可惜，當這個答案跑出來後，我在一些討論區看到很多失望的聲音。
自 從世界有了iPhone以後，蘋果多了很多奇怪的支持者。他們要求蘋果每一次(大約兩三個月一次吧)都要帶給他們震撼世界的驚喜。「期望會有驚喜」的 人…真是既矛盾又奇怪。但如果蘋果不是帶給他們預期的「iPhone nano、Mac Netbook、iMac touch」這些「驚喜」的話，便會極其失望(簡直矛盾到極點)。
可憐的是蘋果，那些「支持者」不會看企業級的產品(如Xserve)、不 會看你軟件的創新(如上次iLife 09的發佈)、也不會看你的設計工藝有多先進和頂級(如MacBook Unibody的發佈)，甚至現在連iPod也不在乎了。也不管蘋果你再會發明什麼我們沒有見過的產品，他們只要更輕更細小更帥氣的iPhone，最好可 以跑Office、看高清、內置收音機、千萬像素鏡頭連自動對焦加微距加Face Detection加一笑即拍功能、玩Flash Game…..和一台最好不用HK$3000 / US$399，卻功能齊全、有HDMI、看硬解高清、玩GTA4、可以跑Windows 7(!) 的MacBook。
抱歉，我離題了。有時候，我寧願iPhone是這樣子就算了….
Apple Online Store just shutted down (globally) and updating. What do you expect? The rumoring new 2TB Time Capsule? Updated MacBook? Or something crazy like iPhone nano, iMac touch, iPod Pro, eee MacBook?
