Virtual Definitions
    Virtualization can be a confusing area to understand. By its very definition, 
  virtualization is an abstract endeavor. And with the ability to virtualize everything 
  from PCs to servers to mainframes to storage to files and I/O, no wonder so 
  many are perplexed. 
Just the client alone is filled with many ways to virtualize. You can turn 
  a PC into multiple PCs with PC virtualization. You can isolate an app from the 
  registry through application virtualization. You can stream apps from a server 
  to a PC through application streaming or desktop virtualization. 
Tom Valovic, a longtime IDC analyst who just joined Virtualization 
  Review, recently dissected the world of client virtualization in a recent 
  blog posting. Now I think I almost understand it. This guy is going to be 
  really good!
