VMware’s Paul Maritz and Intel’s Gregory Bryan explain why their companies have partnered to offer a desktop hypervisor.


One of the bigger announcements at this week's VMworld Europe in Cannes has been VMware's partnership with Intel on virtualised desktops.
VMware used the show to push its new client virtualisation platform, which includes a desktop hypervisor which will be used alongside Intel's vPro technology to offer "thick client" devices optimised for handling virtual machines.
