With all of the advancements to VMWare we continue to have more and more things to do. ESXi 3.5 can still be run on older SMP machines and ESXi 4.1 runs very well with the 64bit machines. Both systems can be run to support virtualized windows and linux machines. Recently ESXi 5 came out and will only support multi core processors. I tried to update an older DL380 G4 with the new version but it throws a purple screen of death.
I guess we will all have to get use to running and updating three different versions of vmware until the hardware all gets replaced!
