If this actually also breaks HyperV I will take back the accusation and give them some benefit of the doubt due. :)
I don’t think so, but I staffed at Ignite last year in Orlando in the Azure booths and we were passing out these stickers with “Microsoft Hearts VMWare” to everyone.
The Server guys didn’t even have a Hyper-V booth.
I think it is just becoming an OS function/role, like Notepad or Fle Server.
