MS Announces Date for VMM2 beta 17
An anonymous reader writes "Microsoft has said it will ship a beta of Virtual Machine Manager 2 this summer, according to a report in The Hypervisor. Observers says this means that the new beta will be unveiled at the Tech Ed show to be held in America in June. According to the article, the new beta will be able to manage VMs running on VMware and XenSource hypervisors, and will also support Microsoft's forthcoming Hyper-V hypervisor. The finished version of VMM2 should follow before the end of the year."

By the way, since Linux kernel 2.6.19-21 (i'm not sure), Linux comes with KVM which is Kernel based Virtual Machine, so If MS do the same, no-one can say that they use their Monopole in the OS market to gain advantage (like in Explorer vs. Netscape issue) since it had been done on Linux before.
