This is an excellent rundown of Linux/FOSS virtualization. I remember when Elizabeth was writing for O'Reilly. It's good to run into her writing again. She always does a good job with the topics she covers.
It was funny when National Lampoon ran the "buy this magazine or the dog gets it" cover. This doesn't quite rise to that level.
Oh good grief! Let me put it this way: I bookmarked this article. If I need to explain why FOSS solutions can do everything that brand M or brand O or brand C can do and then some, everything I need is in one place. The article clearly lays out the goodness that FOSS virtualization solutions bring to the table. Is that better, tc?

FWIW, a while back darkduck accused me of only finding negative things to say about articles. I'm trying to be better about that :) Oh, and I haven't seen any ducky articles on here lately. Maybe he's given up on posting to LXer.com since we're all such a bunch of old meanies :)
Oops, I posted to the wrong thread. This belongs on the Lunduke thingy.
Fair enough, tc. You can disregard part of my first paragraph of my response.
I really need to get trained up on the nuts/bolts of virtualization ... by actually doing it.

Hah, that's got to be one of the funniest exchanges I've seen this week :D
