I'm not sure this is true... There is a version of Hyper-V available in which 
you don't need a W2K8 license to use....  Only problem is all of the supported 
VM Guests are licensed products but it is possible to installed a free distro 
of Linux.  Now, why you would want to is another story.

Also consider that everyone says that the Microsoft Hyper-V is free, however, 
you still have to buy Windows server to get it!! In your cloud example there 
are MANY commercial cases where a hypervisor that is actually free will 
continue to make economic sense for a long time!!

If you follow groups like http://groups.google.com/group/cloud-computing/, you 
will definitely get the idea that XenSource is the dominating hypervisor within 
the "Cloud". Of course Cloud means different things to different people. Not 
wanting to take Serguei's comments out of context, but when he says "This will 
signal the eventual end of XEN", that will only happen when marketing rebrand 
it J.

BTW, don't forget that according to the press releases Xen is "Cloud Proven", 
that is my new requirement for all products! J
