Back in the early days it was all command line (terminal) driven anyway so there really isn't much that can't be done that way. It's just going to be easier to click the start button next to Websharing in the gui than to bring up the terminal and type /usr/sbin/apachectl stop. Similar things for server which makes admin easier with the GUI tools. That said, I suspect they would make the apps accessible, but I haven't tired it and I don't know anyone who has actually paid out for the more expensive OSX Server.

The idea does not sit with me that apple would produce an application or set of utilities for network management that were not accessible my guess is that they are. If this is the case, could you imagine what implications that could have on blindness network administration?

    From what I've read in the past the main differences with server
    are some nice GUI configuration tools and more services turned on
    by default. That means that with regular OSX you can do pretty
    much the same thing if you don't mind playing around in terminal a
    bit and are good with search engines. For web servers there is a
    common appliance viewpoint called LAMP or Linux, Apache, MySQL and
    PHP. The standard Mac already has all these things, just not all
    turned on, so there is very little in the web dev world you
    couldn't do on a stock Mac or MAMP setup. Macs also include an SSH
    server so you can ssh into another Mac and execute commands
    remotely. While all the users/groups/rights stuff would probably
    be easier with a GUI on OSX server, there is nothing preventing
    anyone from doing the same thing the old fashion way on plain old OSX.

    According to Gordon Smith on the Mac access list it is not very accessible

    Hi Listers,

    I've just been looking at the mac mini server machine that is being
    advertised on the apple website.

    A mac mini 2.53 processor with 4gig ram and runningt the snow leopard
    server os.

    Has anyone used this OS and how usable is it with voice over?
