If you\’re going to mention other virtualization products then say that parallels is used by the most, at least give some numbers to support your claim. You tout Parallels for a number of issues, but I see no claims like \”product A, B and D can\’t do this\” or \”products C and E can\”, etc..

Again, this article just seems like a lousy advertisement.

Mr. Hess, can you provide any more insight into how you came to this conclusion?

I\’m disappointed in LinuxMag for allowing this article to get online without more editing.

This is simply not true. There is only one kernel instance handling all the VEs/containers. If it crashes, all of them are down.
