I now regret it. Honestly it sounds like nobody on this list actually value's older software. VMware ESXi 3.5i is 32bit software that does not require virtualization on a CPU with the VT extensions. Yes it would help in a virtual environment, but is not required. And, FYI, there are two versions of VMware ESXi 3.5 (32bit) and Vmware ESXi 4 (64bit only). <br>

You should consider 55 through Minneapolis and grabbing 110 or Pilot Knob. Usually a much smoother ride, albeit one with 10 stoplights.<br>

Sometimes it's even better to get on the river road. Take the West river<br>
road down to Franklin or Lake or Ford and cross over to the East. From<br>
there you can get on Rt. 5. You might only to 25 mph, but you won't hit<br>
any lights. I've used it to get from the U to the airport at rush hour<br>
and it works great.<br>

ESXi supports less hardware than ESX. If you don't have licenses to<br>
spare, this means you're a bit out of luck and have to go with the free<br>
version which is only limited to ESXi.<br>

You may be able to save some money by going with tower servers instead<br>
of rack mounted ones. Dell typically has great deals on them.<br>

No experience with this server model, but you might want to look into<br>
ESX\ESXi version 2 although you may not be able to get licenses for it.<br>
Another option is the hosted VMware Server which runs in Windows or<br>
Linux as it will more likely support your hardware.<br>

The Roseville location might not be any worse, although I can't speak<br>
to traffic. You'd just stay on 694 until you hit 35W, and go south<br>
from there to 36, and over to Snelling. If traffic is the same I would<br>
think the travel time from St. Cloud would be the same to Roseville<br>
and SLP.<br>

Running a virtualization system on a processor without the<br>
virtualization instruction set extensions will either be impossible or<br>
just woefully inadequate, depending on the type. I'm not sure which<br>
type VMware ESX is, but either way I wouldn't expect this to work<br>
*well*, if at all.<br>

I have to second that. Virtualization on a CPU without the VT extensions is<br>
a big performance hit.<br>
