OT: Request for speaker

[Vaughn Treude]

Austin,
Thanks, I really appreciate your kind offer.  To be honest, I'm not 
really sure I understand virtualization myself, and most of the audience 
will not be Linux people.  Would it be possible to add a bit of an 
introduction for beginners?  Is there a way we could briefly encapsulate 
what virtualization is and what its benefits are?
BTW, I'll be away from this computer most of the day so if you respond 
before this evening could you please reply to vlt at nakota-software.com?
Again, thanks.
Vaughn
