OSNews, Generic OSes "One of the hottest topics in all of IT today is the subject of virtualization. While it has been around for some time, it has just recently started to garner the attention of the biggest names in tech. Everyone from Intel and AMD, to Microsoft, Sun, and virtually every commercial Linux vendor has either current or planned support for virtualization.

Aaahh.... I knew the norwegians were backwards, but I though they kept it on the soccerfield (Unnskyld eyvind - den var bare for nem at komme med).

Well, virtualization is not the answer to everything, therefore of course it's not 42 ;)

However it is useful from time to time. I believe most of us are using it on daily basis one way or the other.
