operating systems run on the same computer, is expected to announce next week
that it will begin giving away one of its key products for free, CNET News.com
has learned. </span></font></b><o:p></o:p></p>

title="VMware releases Workstation 5.5 -- Wednesday, Nov 30, 2005">VMware
Workstation</a>, GSX Server and ESX Server, but competition is on the horizon
in a market VMware once had to itself. On Monday, however, the company is expected
to announce it will give away GSX for free, sources familiar with the plan
said. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p><!-- Search Engine Component --><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span
style='font-size:12.0pt'>GSX runs on a "host" Windows or Linux
operating system and then lets "guest" operating systems run atop it
in compartments called virtual machines. The higher-end ESX product, in
contrast, needs no host and runs below the operating system layer. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>VMware
may gain two advantages from the move. First, because virtual machines can be
moved from GSX to ESX, customers who try the former may choose to upgrade to
the latter. Second, giving the software away for free could make VMware's
technology more popular and cement the company's lead over emerging rivals. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>Today,
GSX costs $1,400 for dual-processor servers and $2,800 for more powerful
machines. ESX, while more expensive, permits more sophisticated features such
as VMotion, which lets one running operating system be moved from one server to
another while it's still running. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>VMware
didn't immediately respond to requests for comment. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>VMware is
an established power in the realm of virtualization, a technology that permits
computing equipment to be more flexible and run more tasks efficiently. Its
software lets different operating systems run in virtual machines; each virtual
machine appears to be an entirely separate computer, but in fact each shares
the same hardware with others. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>Such
technology has been available on high-end computers for years, but VMware
brought it to the realm of mainstream computers using x86 processors such as
Intel's Pentium and Advanced Micro Devices' Opteron. The move is timely:
Virtual machines let more work be done on a single server, an efficiency move
that helps ameliorate the <a
