I'd be interested to get your final impressions of VBox versus Xen.
It seems like the new virtualisation technologies are superior in
performance to VMWare but not as mature and will take a little while
to catch up.
I haven't done formal testing but have decided on Xen, which wins on
several counts:
Networking can be setup with much less hassle.
The console.
The Xen server distribution. It's fast and locked down, and very quick
to install and setup in a pinch.
Bigger, more active community.

I haven't downloaded yet but 3.1
(http://www.xensource.com/download/index_oss.html) came out last week.
This should do the live migration we talked about.
I am specing up for a 64 bit box that will be OK to run 32 bit or 64 bit
Windows servers.
See here

for just one of the reviews that are now floating around the net.
Cheers.
