Why is Linux a more flexible target for Virtualization?

I recently answered this question indirectly on SearchSystemsChannel.Com. Right now, Microsoft’s licensing is so restrictive that it makes VMotion with VMWare Windows Guests next to impossible. Granted, I don’t think Microsoft would bring the hammer down on a customer that was using VMotion to perform maintenance or for emergencies, but why not have a crystal clear license and avoid the ambiguity altogether?

Happy Reading!
