It'd be nice to see a comparison of VMware ESX vs Open Source Xen vs

it would be a huge task even if permission from all parties was obtained :-(

A cook off, is probably the best way to deal with this.

Good comparisons are based on an expert for one vs an expert for another competing. As long as the results are repeatable by an independent observer.
