This and that other "virtual guest OS" make me start to think about Xinu (Xinu Is Not Unix) that popped up years ago. Basically Xinu wasn't so much an OS as an "application hardware support layer" - it gave your application the stuff it needed to run right on hardware. Except that these days with virtualization, your application isn't so much sitting on hardware as it is on a VM.
So I believe we're now seeing multiple stabs at the Xinu-on-VM approach, and it will be interesting to see what sugars out. It will also be interesting to see what gets pushed back into the hypervisor, as the guests simplify.
