1. Hands off that CSV!
2. VMware ESX 4 can even virtualize itself
3. Layers and Layers of FUD
4. Microsoft tries deception, gets caught
5. SCVMM/PRO Complexity: High
6. Live Migration “significantly more complicated”

As I was pulling together these stats, I was not all that surprised to find that the more competitive posts tend to be the ones with the most comments.  The how-to posts ranked higher by page view — because they are linked to by many others around the blogosphere.

My sincere thanks go out to all of the readers, commentators, and fellow virtualization bloggers.
