I agree. However KVM isnt here yet, does not work that well and does not have anywhere near the momentum / userbase that Xen has today. So while I totally agree KVM is quite cool, I am not giving up on my Xen installs quite yet. Besides, who knows what the future holds :D there might even be something to top KVM, like a hypervisor in the bios of the machine... hey, isnt that where this started from in the first place!

And keep in mind that you cant even install KVM in a stable supported setup today. A situation that is looking quite unlikely to change for a while yet.
