Maybe not. They (and Apple) will allow Mac OS X 10.7 in a VM, but not  
earlier versions. You _can_ run Mac OS X Server in a VM legally, and  
the VM solutions enable (and allow) that. SO the real solution might  
be to keep 10.6 on the machine, and run 10.7 in a VM.

By the way, 10.7.2 is out now. You guys might want to wait to get it  
until the BIG CROWD has dissipated somewhat. The Apple servers are  
really being hammered at this time!
