I'm sure you realise that only shifts the problem under another carpet.
In fact at my corp where we are deciding our virtualisation strategy
right now, the consensus is to force a platform jump at least every 3
years (ideally 18 months), and anything that requires a specific vm is
queued to /dev/null.

The great fallacy about virtualisation is that creating a gazillon of
different vms is easy, but paying people to manage a gazillon of
different vms isn't.
