[cisco-voip] FYI: VMware ESXi is now free

[Jonathan Charles]

You don't need to know Linux...

The installation is quite easy... just next a lot (add IPs and
stuff...) and then after it completes it will tell you to open a web
browser and then install the infrastructure 3 client.then you can do
VMWare stuff...

Personally, I think Workstation is more suitable for our needs (I am
running Workstation 6) and I have CCM 4.1/IPCC a Unity 4 box, a CUCM
6.1 box and Unity 7 box, plus an XP VM for stuff...
