RE: With VMWare making
I'll agree to that. We're looking at Vmware right now for some dual boxes with 4GB RAM to consolidate a bunch of old servers and reduce our Citrix farm. $6000 for Vmware, plus whatever Virtual Center costs (for the app and per server for the client), plus the $6000 they want for the physical to virtual script to migrate servers without doing it manually, plus you have to pay EXTRA if you want EACH VIRTUAL MACHINE TO RECOGNIZE MORE THAN ONE PROCESSOR, which makes no sense at all. What a racket they have going.
