How many hosts do you typically run at one time?

VMWare

I am running it on a 64bit machine with 16GB RAM. It is for testing, lab,
etc...

I have six hosts on it.. Windows 2008 (2), Windows 2003 (2), Windows 7,
Window XP

Okay I need honest opinions here. I've got 5 dev laptops that I'm going to
wipe because I'm tired of spinning around all day while testing software
since some is production, some are new betas etc and they can't exist on the
same machine. Well some can but then I have to keep track of ports being
used by each piece to not cause conflicts.

 

I just got a brand new 64 bit laptop with 6gig of memory and want to setup a
machine that can do virtual machines so if its ubuntu like everyone talks
about I can run two windows 7 sessions if I need to or a windows server and
xp session or whatever combination.

 

I know one vendor I'm working with is using VMWare to do this and told me to
get that.

 

What say you?
