VMworld Starts Spinning

Your editor woke up to approximately 346 e-mails about VMware, virtualization and VMworld this morning. While we understand and appreciate the importance of virtualization here at RCPU, we're still not experts in the technology. Luckily, though, RCPmag.com employs some folks who are, and one of them wrote up a pretty darn good VMworld piece here.

Also, don't forget to check VMworld news as it happens with our friends at sister publication Virtualization Review.
