XenoLinux rocks

I have been messing around with Xen for work and it is excellent. It's a bit fiddly to set up, so not for those who haven't messed around with kernel compiles and other nerdy stuff, but once working works very well, without the licensing fees of VMware and a lot less performance overhead than user Mode Linux (according to the site).

I see the founders have just made a company XenSource to make some dosh on it, and got some funding, hope it all goes very well for them, and Xen remains free.
