I would like to share my experiences with virtualizing OS X 10.6. Snow Leopard Server in VMware Fusion 5.
Compared to what Fusion offers in terms of Windows virtualization, the OS X Server virtualization seems quite poor to me:
- no audio input, no audio output (this seems one of the worst limitations at all!)
- no drag & drop between the host and the VM
- no Wi-Fi
- multi-display full screen not possible
- no 3D graphic acceleration, no Quartz Extreme support, only SVGA
Regarding audio in/out, there are some hacks around but they seem to work only on hackintoshes, not on Apple hardware.
(at least not on mine).
See thread:

I invite everybody who has collected experiences in OS X Server (or Client) virtualization to post their opinion in this discussion thread.
Thank you!
