MacMini vs MacBookPro Server?

[Das Goravani]

Is there any reason to NOT go with a MacBookPro as a server?

Folks recommend the MacMini but right now I can get a great laptop that beats all Mini’s specs for the same money as a good mini… 

I can get a better server for the same money if I go with a MacBookPro

Any reasons why I should NOT go this route?

Overheating is a question.. is the Mini better with heat distribution? Is a laptop NOT meant to stay on.. ?

This is for a server.. so it will always be ON

Maybe they made the Mini to stay on and I just dont know it yet..
