yup....
ESX can be setup on ONE physical machine and host TONS of clients. that saves you TONS AND TONS AND TONS of money. like $800,000 just for a medium sized business.

takes a bit of linux knowhow and time. about 30mins and i could have it up and running.
how in the hell u do that i been trying to figure that out for awhile now i didn't even think it was possible lol
IIRC, One ESX server can host approximately 128 VMs, but they need to be very robust. Ours are dual 2.6GHz quad-core Xeons with 48GB of ram, with 15K RPM SAS drives in raid 1 for the OS.
Did I mention we have the largest SAN in IL? I think we are over 22TB now...
How easy would it be to get VMWare and a Linux distro going? What would be a good distro for server stuff and internet?

I think freakshow was asking how to accomplish it... asking for some info on how to actually do it.
Which steps are you currently unable to do?
1. Are you having trouble installing/setting up *nix?
2. Are you having trouble installing/setting up compiz?
3. Are you having trouble installing/setting up VMware?
4. Are you having trouble installing/setting up Windows within VMware?
5. Are you having trouble getting the VMware Windows to go full-screen?
6. Are you having trouble getting the cube to rotate?
