Not exactly. They claim they are in server business forever. There is
something called MacOS Server. Which is an incarnation of their OS with
some scripts added. But (apart from that that thing doesn't have
documentation - "click here, then click there... and you are done" doesn't
count for such) they do not maintain its consistency for any decent period
of time. That is, as soon as they release next version of the system you
can say goodbye to some of the components of your MacOS Server.

So, as far as "clever Apple" is concerned, I disagree with you. Unless we
both agree they are clever enough to be able to fool their customers ;-)
