Given that apple dropped the most successful iPod ever (the mini), in favour of the nano, yes, apple is known to drop profitable lines because they feel its an eventual dead end. For example, I'm guessing they are discontinuing XServe because they weren't selling any significant amounts to those who need the 1U form factor, and if you don't need that, all it was doing is cannibalizing sales of PowerMacs and Mac Minis.
As I said, Mac Os X Lion Server is most likely not going to exist. It's just one Mac Os X.
