Xen hosting

I have read today on a mailing list a very interesting thread. It seems like there is a project Xen hosting that has the goal to provide cheap, reliable, and community managed Xen hosting. It really seems like a nice project especially because some communities stared using it ( http://www.chris-lamb.co.uk/2007/10/03/yet-another-community-xen-server ) but personally I still prefer good old BSD jails. 
In my opinion Xen is a relatively young platform, it isn’t tested enough by a lot o people comparing to the jails that over the years have proven their advantages.Anyway I hope one day this will become a reliable solution because it could be the beginning of something…

Well this platform is and isn’t good for you at least.
First of all BSD doesn’t work on it.
Second it uses virtualisation … If you want fucked-up drivers …
Third … not free …
Forth you can put windows machines on it … and that my friend will bring you money
