I wouldn't be surprised to see this change once the Xserves have been cleared out of their inventory.
Oracle/Sun seems to be on pretty good terms with Apple -- Apple based its auditing system on Solaris's BSM, Apple integrated Solaris's DTrace into its kernel, Apple has toyed with ZFS, Apple apparently runs a lot of their own systems on Oracle/Solaris hardware, Larry Ellison and Steve Jobs are friends. Maybe there will be a special deal where you can run Mac OS X Server on Solaris.
