VMWare ESXi 3.5 available for free download
On 29th July 2008 VMWare announced that its hypervisor ESX is available for free download from the website.
The full press release is available here: http://www.vmware.com/company/news/releases/esxi_pricing.html
To download the VMWare ESXi a registration is required, but after a few minutes spent typing data into the form you’ll be able to download what has been considered the flagship product from VMWare.
Probably VMWare wants to limit the ascending of Citrix (Xen Hypervisor), Sun and Microsoft: all of them are providing virtualization technologies.
