If you had spare resource on a large server (Datacenter) and you consider OS reasons (as opposed to merely application coexistence) as the reason why you would like many OS instances it's a reason to do it (outside of the job objects / process control type modelling you could apply on Datacenter platforms). I'd have to say though, I think it's currently going to be a quite limited set of circumstances where you'd use it for terminal server farms - and I say this as somebody using both vmware and Datacenter platforms.
