Is the OS X server good for a home network?

Is the OS X server a good idea for a basic home network?? Nighthawk AC7000 , PS3 , multiple wifi devices etc...

I find OS X server a great Home Server mostly if you you have more that one computer on which many people want to log in.
For the rest, iCloud may do the trick, you can use external drives for big files, and doubling server with iCloud may add a layer of complexity.
Todd Olthoff does a great job on Youtube with home servers and I read a few good ebooks on the topic.
Notes:
iPhones and iPads are considered Personal Devices in my world, unless I deploy-rotate the in schools.
I aslo got a Static IP, a domain name to go with it, a router that doubles DNS if I may use that expression.
It's even a little more complex if you are not in the USA:
iBooks Caching in Canada was, and maybe still a problem.
Register devices on iCloud too was delayed.
VPP was hard to come by in my appreciation of things.

What is the web gallery option good for...

what is the web gallery option good for if it doesnt work on any other computer, other than mine? If i choose save "online" where do i find ftp server ? and what type of sites does this work on?

Saving collections and I suppose web gallery (although I have neverf used it) is really just a reference to file locations on your computer. So it will not work for any other computer that is not exactly like yours.

It's the Mac book air good for graphic design and video editing ?

I'm into graphic design for clothing logos etc. and I'm a photographer my question is, is the Mac book air good for these things?

ideally a 15" would be best for same, as referring to the 15" macbook Pro.
For a photographer, which I used to be long ago, either the Air or Pro are close in form factor for travel with only one moving part, and SSD.
The retina display in combination with the 15" would be idea as best choice for photo editing and graphic design.

What's the best FTP server software for Mac OS X Server?

What's the best FTP server software for Mac OS X Server?
We have looked at a few different applications out there (Rumpus, CrushFTP, etc...) and are wondering what the community feels.
Apples built -in isn't robust enough. We do need some advanced features (reporting, SFTP, a web interface would be nice etc...).
Opinions?

Hi
For me it has to be RumpusFTP Server:
http://www.maxum.com/Rumpus/
It has a secure web interface - no need to open ports 20, 21. No need for dedicated FTP client software for uploading and downloading. Supports the most commonly used browsers. Multi-platform support and can be installed on a standard client OS.

The macbook air is good for creating apps?

Please answer me if the mac air is good for creating apps?

Yes, of course.
The 13" would give you more desktop space to work with.

I assume my Apple TV should allow me to view all events, albums and slideshows in my iPhotos app but it only allows four events and four albums to display on my television. I'm using a Optus mini Wi Fi for my home network. Could this be the reason for limited access via my iMac computer?
Chris

No, I have not chosen photos to share as I assumed that the Apple TV would access all photos and music that are stored on my iMac.
Thanks for your advice. I will check it out.

I am considering a base 21" iMac ($1099 @ Best Buy) for home use. It would be my first Mac. Is the base model powerful enough for everyday home use and some light video editing or should I upgrade the CPU, Ram and to a Fusion drive?

Purchasing with the upgrades through Apple would add about $800 over the Black Friday deal at Best Buy. Just looking for some advice if I will be satisfied with the based model.

All models will do what you want. Upgraded models will do it faster than the standard models.
Just why are you thinking of switching to a Mac?

Is the mac book pro good for gaming?

Is it good for heavy minecraft work? And which core should I get?
Thanks

Minecraft does not have heavy system requirements, so any of the current models will play minecraft just fine. Either the Core i5 or Core i7 will do for what Minecraft requires, so if you are only interested in Minecraft then I'd go for whatever fits your best price (the 15-inch will ultimately do better than the 13 inch because of the dedicated graphics card). If you are looking to extend beyond Minecraft and do heavy graphics processing in games or otherwise, then go for the Core i7 and higher quality dedicated graphics card.

Is the 802.11 ac good for gaming?

we have 3 xboxes in my house and I was wondering if this device would be good for gaming?

If you are trying to run 3 xboxes at once to online games you will find it well neigh impossible without a router that is fully Microsoft Vista UPNP spec and above.. due to the nature of NAT routers each xbox will need the same ports opened .. this is not possible.. only using upnp can xbox negotiate a different port.. and apple did not include upnp in the apple router.. so I think you are going to run into big problems.. you cannot simply use port mapping..
I would strongly recommend a router on the xbox compatible list.
here is the comment about apple routers for mulitple xbox connection.

Is the X-FI series good for Midi recordi

Before I spend a lot of money I would ask the forum what for a card is good for Midi recordings and has good piano samples. Additional I have a new motherboard (Asus M2NPV-VM)?with two PCI Slots only. Therefore I have no chances to change the slots due to IRQ problems. Therefore the card should be full PnP and WIN XP compatible. The old one shared the IRQ with the USB controllers or the on board grafic card (Can you recommend a X-FI card?Thanks.

All I can find is "Bit Matched Recording"
Basically I do not want the X-fi to touch any of my audio (and no I am not using a receiver).
I have the Klipsch ProMedia Ultra 5.
For example, if I am listening to a source playing at 4400kHz, 6bit, then I want to hear exactly that.
Think of it another way. If a video source image is 800x600 and I have a 920x200 monitor, I do not want to scale the image to fit 920x200. I want the image to appear at the center of the screen with black bars on top, bottom, left & right sides. A : pixel for pixel image. I would also be using DVI-D so there is no Digital to Analog conversion. Make sense now? I am viewing the source as intended.
Now help me with : audio. I do not believe this is possible with Creative's current cards from all the articles and tech info I have read.
