Hi, I'd tend to disagree, sorry. Apple used to sell Minis with Server software specifically as a Mac Mini Server. I purchased a few of them for work. They had two 500 GB HD's and no DVD/CD unit. This was back when Snow Leopard Server was out and XServe's were still being sold. Not sure if their stand has changed since then but I doubt it. The new Server software is simply an app available from the Mac App Store so they likely promote it being useful on most Macs.
