You're assuming it will all work at RTM , large assumption. ----- Original Message ----- From: Tim Vander Kooi <[email protected]> To: NT System Admin Issues <[email protected]> Sent: Tue Apr 06 12:22:20 2010 Subject: RE: VMware --> Hyper-v For an environment the size that Richard describes a better solution might be to wait a few weeks and look into System Center Essentials 2010 which does management, update and software installs, as well as virtual machine management for environments with fewer than 500 clients and 50 servers. I am pretty sure that you could move to SCE and still see large savings from your move away from VMware.

I believe the price on it is $1k US for an unlimited number of Hyper-V hosts.
