I just got the confirmation from the Cisco representative as the Nexus 1000V will be bundle on the Cisco UCS as FOC if the customers who deploy the virtualization VMware vSphere 4 with Cisco UCS platform. It will definitely be helpful and encourage more users to be adopted on nexus 1000V implementation in the Virtual Infrastructure when the VMware vSphere 4 are deploying on Cisco UCS platform. If you are running the VMware vSphere 4 with others server vendor, the Nexus 1000V will be an extra features with additional cost.
Microsoft had included the virtual PC with backward compatible of Windows XP to support the users who may had difficult to run their application on Windows 7. This is free and we can see more user will sure include this as part of the Windows 7 installation move forward. Bear in mind, if you have VMware Workstation running on the same machine, you may see the conflict happen if you have your Virtual PC application running and you try to start up a virtual machine from VMware Workstation. There will be a message prompt to inform you that there are existing hypervisor utilize the virtualization capabilities on your machine. The only way to get your VM start up is to end the session of your Virtual PC application. You should able to start your virtual machine up. Not very sure whether there are any workaround beside this, but at this moment, it consider a conflict and we need to choose either 1 to be run at a time.
