OS X Server virtualization = VPS

I started out with Parallels (version 2) but moved to VMWare because VMWare virtual machines allowed more addressable RAM per VM. I assume this is a non-issue in Parallels version 3.

The main interest for me in OS X virtualization is bare-metal implementations on OS X Server. Parallels is coming out with a Server Version. The ability to host your stuff on an OS X Virtual Private Server is promising if you are a small business with a large installed base of OS X clients. Think iCal server. Even better, if you use your employee machines for grid computing during their downtime, having an Xgrid server at your disposal is a huge win.
