Virtualizing

So I'm sitting here tasked with checking out virtualization. Sure I've used MS Virtual PC's and Servers for my MS Training courses. I was pretty good at loading them and using them. But really not the ideal platform for real life use. So off on the search I go!

So what to use? Xen, Citrix, VMWare, Microsoft or other? Wow, who just through the bag of skittles into my search?

So what am I looking for? Free, inexpensive, easy to learn, setup and manage Virtualization Desktop that can manage Windows XP-7, Mac Tiger-Snow Leopard, and Linux Ubunutu, SUSE, Red Hat and most others, not including FreeBSD. Really I don't think I'm asking for too much. This is only going to run a small section but hey I want what I need!

Film Making in New Mexico

Yesterdays guest lecture Karen RedHawk Dallett presentation on "Let's Make Movies: New Mexico's Coolest New Industry" was packed. Over 100 people and not just students showed up. The theme, write write write then collaborate. Pretty cool deal and we can't wait to see what else they bring to campus!
