>>...The reason that I think we have not seen this is that people perceive
that the overhead of VMware means that you end up with fewer concurrent
users on two VM's on a quad, then you would with two separate dual CPU
servers. 
 
What the published studies actually show is that you end up with less users
per Virtual Machine then on the same physical hardware, however, you can run
more VM's than physical instances of the OS and as a result you actually end
up with around 20% more total users on the same hardware!
