Eric Sloof has some of the first notes in the wild talking about booting his ESX Server 3i that he got at VMworld. I believe many of the details are under NDA, but here’s a peek:
Also Dell has been talking about its forthcoming VESO servers:
- VESO: How Dell Will Simplify Virtualization (at Direct2Dell Blog, this is a nice video of the demo system used at the VMworld 2007 keynote) [via DABCC]
- uberpulse posts a pic inside the box with a quote from a Dell product manager: "this is not your typical 2 sockets server"
Although this is not a hardware blog, I’m happy to pass along tidbits from other OEMs who will be shipping ESX Server 3i — and I’m talking to you, HP, IBM, Fujitsu, and NEC.
