Citrix has made an unexpected move into the virtualisation market with its intended US$500 million acquisition of XenSource.

Microsoft has delayed an update to its current virtualisation software and the beta debut of its next-generation successor code-named Viridian.
Microsoft, faced with virtualisation competition and customer demands, is working to bring some technologies to market sooner than it earlier had said.
