Same conclustion here Tim.
One update though- we are doing a project now with the latest HP Quad Dual
Core systems running ESX 3 and "Holy Crap", there are some serious cycles in
these babies that overcomes many of the older systems limitations. Bottom
line- if you are doing anything with high transaction volume and I/O, you
probably want a raw hardware server. But, the threshold has been lowered
with ESX 3.x and these new crazy fast multi-core beasts on the market!!!

PS will work fine. The question is one of performance. A Citrix server
running on a platform (hardware or virtual) that offers a limited number of
CPUs (1 or 2 depending on ESX config) will probably become CPU bound when
you add in a lot of users. I have seen customers become surprised that they
can't run 4 PS virtual servers on a quad processor box and get as many users
as they expected.
In my view, Citrix over VMWare is OK for lightly used PS, not for high-user
count scenarios.

Hi list,
we have already plans to upgrade new servers in our company and I'm
wondering if it's posible to integrate Citrix PS 4 or 4.5 into
a Vmware machines.
If somebody has any experience, could you please give information about
which is the best solution?
we have now four servers in the farm, and we would like to reduce
because we have about 90 ica licenses.
Our servers are HP DL Proliant. any recomendation IBM vs HP or whatever...?
many thanks everybody.
