More expensive because what?????
What do you mean when you say that VMware is more expensive because you have to buy another OS? VMWare Infrastructure 3 runs on a customized version of Redhat Linux, but you don't pay Redhat for that, it comes with VMWare. For Guest OS's you have to license each invividual guest as if it were a hardware server, but thats true with any virtualization product. If you are going to run windows as a VM, you have to have a windows license (have you got a fricaseeing windows license?) regardless if the the host is VMware, windows, or somthing else.
