Windows 8 is going to be including a client hypervisor running a version of Hyper-V
- Hyper-V on Windows 8 client will require 64 bit and SLAT
- It will support small to large VMs. The VM size noted included 32 processors and 512 GB of RAM!
- Console views for virtual machines can support up to 1600 x 1200 (nice, as I have that resolution on my PC)
- Support for VHD and VHDX
- “Live Storage Move” capabilities
- Virtual Machines with using wireless NICs on hosts
- Physical machine “sleep” still works (major change from previous releases)
