But it sure looks like a great appliance and i hope that your guys find a way to run it under ESX :-) /Mich Hi,

It's a really powerful way to deliver software, and using the right tools (*cough-cough*) you can really go from an application to an appliance in a short period of time, and as they intend to do, keep it maintained and updated in a reasonable (not-from-scratch) fashion.
