I am proud to announce a new podcast I will be hosting on a weekly basis – VIRTUMANIA!
VIRTUMANIA is an Infosmack Production that will try to focus on the operational and administrative viewpoints of all things virtualization, so expect a different guest list of bloggers, architects, administrators, and consultants with each recording.
VIRTUMANIA episodes will be announced as new posts here on VM /ETC. Be sure to subscribe to the VM /ETC RSS feed in your favorite RSS reader or download the show each week from the podcast’s RSS feed. Of course, you can subscribe to the VIRTUMANIA podcast on iTunes. Finally, download or listen to each episode from the embedded player on the VM /ETC VIRTUMANIA Page.
Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you the first episode of VIRTUMANIA!

Listen Now:
I can’t thank Greg Knieriemen and Marc Farley enough for the patience, advice, and support necessary to get this podcast off the ground. For those that don’t already know, Greg and Marc host the already widely popular Infosmack podcast covering servers, storage, and virtualization news. Tapping into their insights and experiences while planning this podcast have been, and will continue to be invaluable to me. Special thanks to Marc for the Virtumania theme music and Greg for recording and post editing each episode.

^ What he said
@Theronconrey, thanks for adding to the #VIRTUMANIA w/ the extra Oracle, Virtualbox and Java info!
@dboftlp @storagenerve Thanks for the podcast support!
Interesting podcast. Couple of comments:
1. KVM is also Type 2.
And it is interesting that people (Red Hat, Novell, etc) are moving away from Type 1 (Xen) to Type 2 (KVM) because PV is now a dirty word.
2. The VirtualBox hypervisor can be used as a
- Desktop product – this is what it is most known as.
- Enterprise Desktop Server (Sun VDI) – run vm's on the server
- and even as a Server Virt hypervisor – but it needs a mgmt tool.
Now doesn't Oracle have a mgmt tool?
3. VirtualBox has evolved rapidly over last few years. And didn't Microsoft start on the desktop and then move to the datacenter?
VBoxFan,
Glad you enjoyed the podcast. Thanks for tieing the implied loose ends with
