Microsoft's Hyper V is Finally Released !

Well the much anticipated final release of Microsoft Hyper V has finally happened.

After much speculation about a release this week Microsoft finally officially shipped their virtualization offering yesterday.

This final release is being bundled in with Hyper V inclusive versions of Windows Server 2008.  A non Hyper V inclusive version of the media is also available and is approximately US$29 cheaper.

There is no set date for the standalone version of Hyper V though it is expected to ship later this year.
