We are trying to find a way to test various mac browsers through the mac os's without having the extra equipment available. I know how to get this done, but I didn't know osx server was also licensed to be vm'ed

Hm, I wonder if the "family pack" license would let you install on multiple VMs on the same hardware?

There's no such thing as a "family pack" license for OS X Server.

Wait: if this is all about testing OS X browsers, why do you need OS X Server at all?

As for rack options: a Mini is 2.0 x 6.5 x 6.5 inches according to everymac, which makes them inconveniently a smidge taller than 1U (1.75"), and inconveniently too wide to fit 3 across.

However, if you can mount them on their sides, you can probably fit 8 across in 4U and still have a bit of space between them for cooling. Heck, remove the lid and optical drive, that should help.
