Very good

7.7

out of 10

CNET Editor's rating: 7.7 out of 10
Reviewed by E. W. Johnson
Review date: 1/10/06
Release date: 1/10/05

The good: For a low-cost server, the IBM xSeries 206m offers lots of enterprise-level tools and options, a wide range of hardware choices, and plenty of room for expansion.

The bad: The IBM xSeries 206m lacks setup guides for network services such as shared printers or directories.

The bottom line: The versatile IBM xSeries 206m comes configured as a low-cost all-in-one server with plenty of room for expansion, or as a moderately priced powerhouse for resource-intensive services.
