I've used both IBM's and HP's blade systems at work.
I currently have the IBM's, but I preferred the HP's
I run vmWare's ESX product on each blade, and have 7 guest OS's (all linux) on each, giving me about 80 hosts (IIRC)

I don't remember the cost, but I think it was something like $90k ?
So if that's correct, it runs about $1k/host

per virtual host I mean
