Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard is a popular guest operating system for VMware Fusion users. VMware Fusion users boot Snow Leopard Server to run legacy Mac software, including programs that were written for the PowerPC chips in old Macs. You cannot run the ordinary Snow Leopard 'client' operating system in a guest virtual machine, but you can run Snow Leopard Server. Fortunately, Snow Leopard Server looks and works exactly the same as Snow Leopard 'client' other than offering the extra 'Server' app.
According to various MacInTouch readers (http://www.macintouch.com), it is getting harder to order Snow Leopard Server DVDs from Apple. This is because Apple is changing its system in a way that its employees cannot easily look up the old part numbers or enter them in the order form. (Snow Leopard Server is part number MC588Z/A.) Here is a link to one post in the discussion, which has contact information for someone at Apple who is still able to order Snow Leopard Server on behalf of customers:

Here is the direct contact information for someone at Apple who can order Snow Leopard Server, part number MC588Z/A:

The price is still $19.99 in the US, and varied prices elsewhere. He has helped many VMware Fusion users buy a copy of Snow Leopard Server.
Keep in mind that Snow Leopard Server comes on an installation DVD. Modern Mac computers do not come with a built-in DVD reader. If you don't have a Mac with a built-in DVD player, you may have to buy an external drive to read the DVD. You could also ask a friend to copy the DVD to a disk image file or a USB flash drive.
I hope this helps.
