FYI, and maybe you know this, Microsoft bought Connectix a few months ago,
and the product is now called Microsoft Virtual PC.  Connectix also
developed an 'enterprise' level virtualization product called Virtual Server
which runs on Intel, and which is designed to compete with VMWare ESX.
Microsoft is reworking it for release next year.
