It all come down to what you call an OS, in simple terms, an OS
talks to the hardware and provided
services to the applications running in it.
I saw a presentation by some VMWare folks at my local Linux Users Group
recently, and I got to thinking along the same lines.
Just think of the file/web/email servers you can get as hardware
appliances today. Now, instead of an
physical machine, you could just get a VM image to run on your own
hardware.
VMWare actually has a bunch of VM appliances like you describe for
download on its website.
