Hi Ed, I have used VMware at work in various server/workstn configurations and it is the single tool that allows me to keep my Linux box while in microsoft centric environment. When I first read your post I was hopeful that they may leave it as a separate entity but reading the link to theregister, it sounds like they plan to take it over, not just own the name. I was just looking at an article in Linux Mag on new products that mentions XEN. It sounds like an open source project worth looking at, at least for a home testing as it is "still relatively new". I haven't tried it yet, but the site is at: http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/Research/SRG/netos/xen/ -- Pete Nesbitt, rhce -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
