    Hi guys

    For those that like to preview new technology...

    The ability to use virtual machines for testing or development has been available to Linux users for quite some time in the form of the commercial VMware Workstation, Xen, Usermode Linux, and other virtualization software. Recently, VMware released a beta of its VMware Server product, which is a freely available, albeit slimmed-down, version of its commercial server offerings (GSX and ESX server).

    Read here for more info.

    Have fun

    Just to clarify
    VMWare Server is not a slimmed down version of GSX, its an evolution of GSX and is now free

    the only enterprise ready VMWare solution is ESX, version 3 of which should be out shortly (its been RC for a month or so now)
