don't underestimate microsoft

leaving the debate about the benefits of virtualization aside (and if those numbers are to be believed, then virtualization is now a fact, not an idea) this is not the first time microsoft has been late to the party and although VMware has a huge lead on Hyper-V at this point in time, microsoft will catch up. Its up to VMware to use their lead to continue to be pioneers and keep pushing the boundaries. but at least having Microsoft yapping at their heals will benefit us all by getting VMware to drop those high prices of theirs.
