New extremely please with kvm on redhat
but of course there is an associated cost with that. For the no licensing cost for virtualization virtualbox is the way to go. I was way les than pleased with vmware on linux. Also note because of the fecked crap java in the interfaces I always install X on the server as well as firefox then
ssh -X -l root 192.168.0.1 then start firefox locally.

New VMWare has other competencies
Run it bare metal on a machine (like Cisco made-for-this blade boxes), with a SAN for disk, and it's a sight to behold. Minutes to provision new instances (as opposed to weeks waiting for new hardware to come in), near instant failover, etc.

KVM for Linux, xxx for Solaris (I don't remember the name), HyperV for Windows... but you can run all of that in VMWare. Even Sparc Solaris for that matter.

But that's in an enterprise data center that needs that sort of thing.
