coLinux isn't virtualisation really though. This does mean you can get much better performance under it, but it doesn't offer the same protection (eg, the "guest" machine can corrupt the memory of the host, hanging it and any other running guest machines).

Microsoft starts supporting, er, Linux (Register) Posted Apr 7, 2006 7:10 UTC (Fri) by nlucas (subscriber, #33793) [Link] Yes, but only as root, so user programs have as much chance of doing it as any user program on a native linux machine (which implies an OS critical bug or security flaw).
