Great way of running OpenVMS without powering up real hardware (which is inevitably
noisier than my laptop). Pity it's only Windows - would be nice if it ran natively on
Linux or Mac OS-X.
I do have it running under Xen on my Linux server - in fact on four virtual machines
forming a cluster. I used it a while back for a customer presentation on Availability
Manager - much easier to stop a virtual machine :-)
