Anything that requires specialized ISA/PCI/PCI-X/PCI-E hardware - fax cards, crypto cards, etc - absolutely cannot be virtualized.
Anything that's timing sensitive - VoIP, software that needs to communicate over serial or parallel - might or might not work. VoIP in particular is discouraged for production but is passable for testing purposes. Anything else is fair game, but be aware that not all applications are supported in a virtualized environment. E2k7 is one of them (but I'm sure Hyper-V will be officially supported - gee, imagine that), Oracle is another. That's not to say it won't work, it's just that if: a) they find out it's virtualized b) trace a problem you're having to the fact that it's virtualized the support people will say "we can't help you".
