I have an ESX based server at home, but it's too noisy (nothing to do
with ESX, of course) to run continuously, right now.  I have plans to
fix that.

I have another ESX server running as a production server at a hosting
site.

Not a workstation, of course.  And for some reason I can't run two
NetBSD instances on the home server where I tried it.  Might be
something I don't understand.  No Windows, that would be no good on a
server in my case.

I don't know, ESX seems really good, but it has its drawbacks.
Needing a Windows console to manage it might be the greatest of these
in a workstation situation.
