The Welcome video in Quicktime mov format with a real person: Welcome to the VMM (human) ...and in mov format with a virtual person: Welcome to the VMM (virtual) Text of the video for anyone who is hearing impaired, without speakers or otherwise can't hear the video: Welcome to the first-ever Virtual Monday Minute, or VMM. Virtualization in computer systems is a logical and natural evolution from hardware-based systems to software-based systems. Though virtualization in computer systems has been in production use since the 1960s, recent research and development in virtualization have expanded our conceptual understanding of computational systems. Concisely defined, a virtual machine monitor is a layer in a computer system that manages the resources in the layer below while presenting an abstraction of that layer to a virtual machine at the layer above. This definition is the essence of virtualization, and it helps emphasize the very powerful concept that hardware and software are logically equivalent. Once you free yourself from the confines of the physical machine, you will discover new possibilities in the world of virtualization. Welcome to the VMM.
