If you want to run non-windows guest OS's then why us Windows as the host/hypervisor?



If you were a 99% Windows shop but wanted a linux-based DNS, mediawiki, subversion or similar server would be one case. (Host mostly Windows guests, but a small number of non-Windows.)


In which case you would have windows server machines that could run VirtualPC/VMware/Virtualbox.

The only 'point' of this article is that you can distribute a free windows base image.
