why was my question about mac mini servers closed?
I must respectfully disagree, John. A server is a computer that provides a service. And while I've considered myself an IT Professional for years, there have been few instances when I had hardware purchasing decision-making. Not to mention a new gig and you have to support the existing environment. (Read: Somebody else's decisions.) A professional may gripe about how their predecessor was a clueless moron, but he still does the support. Yes, that includes Macs and Mac Minis.

@zypher - Have you looked at the laptops that most enterprises issue to their employees? Calling them "Low End" is an insult to the low end. They're closer to oversized netbooks, most of the time... (Compaq/HP, and sometimes Dell, I'm looking at you...)

How exactly does the "Tenacious" badge work?
I agree that the wording is awkward. Perhaps "Five or more Zero-Score answers, making up 20% of your total answers."

What's the best way to understand the knowledge that exists in the ServerFault-SE community?
Huh. Learn by reading? It sounds like madness, but it just may be genius! <wink />

Is the syntax highlighting for Code blocks useful on SF?
Thanks also for those examples. Most of the syntax highlighting is so subtle that it makes it feel like my LCD is flaking out or my eyes are tired... Yes, I stand by my answer below; if you want syntax highlighting, copy it into your own editor!

Add writing in coherant english to FAQ
I suppose that's what the Strunk & White and Copy Editor badges are for... Yes, I HATE poor grammar, spelling, and punctuation, but I don't think that there is any reasonable way to enforce it. I suppose that instead of a red squiggly-line for assumed misspelled words, something more obnoxious could be done, but why bother?
