Hi Max,

I am sorry if I was not clear what is the $1400 is for. For me VMware vCenter 4 is way superior to MS VMM, & it must at least be compared to “System Center Server Management Suite Datacenter (SMSD)” which has a list price of $1488** per 2 processors on:

I hope that clear up what I have not clearly mentioned in my post, but hey if you were VMware CEO I am positive you would knew what I am talking about .

Though its sad I have your feedback on VMM price, before I get any feedback of the VMware Team. I hope they will surprise me soon.

“As everyone know Hyper-V charge on their management software aroung $1400 for every server you manage with it.”

Errr… Are you talking about VMM? Because according to ms.com it costs aroung $900 for the server and $40 for the agents – far away from $1400.

Or you mean the OS itself? Which, if you need Windows, you cannot skip buying.
