The Citrix XenSource product has another advantage that is worth paying for: Paravirtualized windows drivers- Citrix/XenSource will provide you with stable paravirt disk and network drivers. Very important things, if you plan on doing serious work with your windows guest. Of course, I'm all *NIX, so yeah, for me there isn't much difference. But if you are running windows, Citrix/XenSource provides some compelling value. _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
