The Psystar "clone" can run Leopard. It can, therefore, also run
Leopard Server. (You could even upgrade the Leopard installation
to Leopard Server, if it came down to it.) Both are equally and
ridiculously unsupported by Apple, or even Psystar in any
meaningful sense. If that's the way you want to run Mac OS X
Server and nothing's going to stop you, go for it.
I just wanted to get clarification on 1 small thing, isn't a
leopard desktop and a leopard server system pretty much the same
exact thing? It's just the leopard server has the admin tools to
run the various software pieces from 1 easy to use, Mac like
interface?
I haven't looked into it too deeply, but on my iMac running
Leopard, I have Postfix, PHP & Apache... A few other pieces and I
have all the server software installed on my desktop computer :)
Just no easy to use interface...
Or am I totally off base?
Yes, that is essentially correct. Mac OS X and Mac OS X Server are
basically the same base OS. Mac OS X Server adds graphical admin
tools and also some other additional server-specific components and
software.
X Serves are also rack mountable, have Intel chips with lights out
management, and generally have the hardware required to be a ... server.
