I'm obviously a big fan of virtualization and emulators.  Separating the
physical hardware from the OS in order to be able to run basically anything
with no driver issues.

Technically, D'Bridge runs on a VM which exists physically on an HP DL360
G6 server with dual (6-core) 2.66Ghz xeon processors and 144GB of ram.

D'Bridge seems to be very happy with this setup.. :)
