Microsoft hypervisor in Server 2008 ...

The buzz about virtualization is not going away any time soon. Especially since we're getting more and more cores on a chip. An easy way to check it out is with Microsoft's Windows Server 2008 Release Candidate Evaluation Software, where you can download a trial version of Microsoft's hypervisor and try it for 30 days. But note that an x64 server is required. If you try this, try Microsoft System Center Virtual Machine Manager as well. One of the differentiators to virtualization will be managing, as well as running, a virtualized environment.
