Dedicated server prices?

[Ansar Mohammed]

Sun Solaris and Windows 2003 (Enterprise Edition) also have these resource
partitioning features.

BTW, Solaris 10 is free.

With the exception of IBM's AIX virtualization stuff, I haven't seen any
virtualization solution which effectively deals with IO partitioning. So
long as you're aware that some customer may decide to eat up all the
disk IO on a regular basis, and prepared to deal with that, a
virtualized solution may be right for you. Potentially it's a whole lot
less expensive.
