The test system was configured with a 1.8GHz Pentium 4 processor, 1GB of memory, and two 40GB hard drives. The Host was running Windows 2003 Server with the hardware configuration as seen in the diagram.
We ran the basic disk performance benchmarks on the host machine and within a virtual server on each package to get an idea of what sort of overheads the virtualisation software placed on the host.
Test bench
Interoperability
What host operating systems with the software run on, and what client operating systems can you install?
Futureproofing
Will you be able to manage many virtual servers with provided or third-party tools?
ROI
What will the software cost and will this be compensated by the time and resources saved?
Service
What support is provided as standard and how much will support contracts cost?

Your excellent web article refers to your test results which i can't find a link to anywhere in the article.
As the test results are referenced as being "on on page 86, I guess this is an oversight.
Could you provide the URL to the test results?
Many thanks,
