Another (border line) comment: Adding additional components to a system (SW or HW) will in general decrease the reliability, as it will add additional bugs and ways for failure. As today's systems are a lot more reliable than some years ago (when WAS your last failure of a (reasonable) server disk/CPU/power supply/etc)? It might be better to invest in a setup you can easily get back in operation if it fails (which usually also means better documentation, automization, etc), than on adding additional layers of complexity. There is an interesting editorial by Rick Farrow in the last issue of ;login (Usenix Journal) talking about the security impact of server virtualization. I think his comments apply to the current discussion as well.
