Microsoft has responded to a recent challenge from Sun to answer some serious questions about Hyper-V â" in particular, how Hyper-V can compete with Xen-based alternatives, and whether a Windows-only virtualization technology can hack it in today's increasingly heterogeneous datacenters.

I don't think heterogeneous-ity comes into it really...
At my current work place we wouldn't use anything other then a MS products as we're a Gold Partners; So we'll be using HyperV without doubt.
My last work place was a Debian shop so we were using Xen...
I really think it's as simple as that, 'Microsoft shops' will use HyperV, where as 'Linux shops' will use Xen... Much like the OSes the both have their advantages and there will be lots of HyperV bashing as it's from Microsoft. Xen was amazing to use both had a very steep learning curve :\
