I don't know of a list of rackable 64-bit servers, but you may consider 
contacting you Sun representative about their 64-bit offerings.  A friend 
of mine, who manages grid computing on the University of Nevada, Reno 
campus, just installed a Sun cluster and it's very nice.  He's not 
virtualizing, but it will run pretty much any distribution.  I'm not sure 
what your budget constraints are, but Sun's offerings are much, much nicer 
than anything I've seen from Dell, albeit more expensive.
Best,
