Thanks to all who replied to this question stated below.

Attached is copy of all replies.  Some of you asked me to share the
replies with the group.

 

Added comments:

Most people who responded thought that VMWare is a better solution and
would highly recommend it.  Others that I have talked with thought that
Virtuozzo is not there yet although it will improve in the future.

In talking with a Microsoft rep I learned that with Virtuozzo you can
run up to 4 free Windows Server VMs. 

 

Firm.

Subject: To Virtualize or not

 

Virtualization is something that I have been thinking about lately but
there are so many pros and cons and probabilities and possibilities one
can find oneself in analysis paralyses very quickly.

 

Is there anyone who has taken the leap and virtualized some or all their
production boxes and if so any advice/pitfalls/benefits that you could
provide would be greatly appreciated?  What are you using for your Host
server(s) (Open-Source, VMware or Microsoft Virtual Server).

 

Happy Holidays to all!
