reply 2, new thoughts (perspective: running *one* Windows-XP-VM on a desktop-machine, for some specific software): Linux 3.1 brings KVM-related improvements. I will check those. I don't see any performance-issues here with KVM, waiting for vmware-player just out of curiosity ... (and KVM is told to be more efficient anyway, closer-to/inside the kernel). Choosing KVM would mean running only one virtualization here, simplifying things and going the open-source path. I simply haven't migrated that one XP-VM yet because I didn't need to so far. Stefan
