With OS X Server, all you have to do is create a user account with the nice GUI that they provide and all of the setup is done behind the scenes. If you don't want the user folder in the default place, there is an easy way to change that in the GUI. I admin a Win2k Server and an XServe and I have to say, the XServe is worlds better imo. Setup is easy and fast. Changes are simple. Plus if you run into anything that you can't accomplish with the GUI, you can bring up the Terminal or ssh into it and make the changes from there. Plus, it's in a 1U case. My Win2k server is about 3/4 as powerful and it takes up 5Us.
