vSphere 5 will only be limited by physical processors, not RAM or number of cores. Not sure where you got the 16GB limitation from. vSphere (What they call ESX/ESXi now) information is available from Vmware here:

I've read that VMWare will have a 16GB limitation in it's next free version, which is pushing me to Xen/XenServer. Just ordered parts for iSCSI SAN.

Leaning towards FOSS. Seems like OpenVZ is easiest to implement but also looking at KVM and XEM also. Seems that CentOS 6 will be focusing on KVM.
