Mark: Actually Xen supports (at least in development) x86, x86-64, IA64 and POWER. However, I agree that I can't see it being ported to z/Architecture. The development "cost" would be very large, and for a relatively small market. The only reason it is coming on POWER is that IBM has contributed much of our hypervisor code for POWER to the Xen project. Same with IA64 where HP has contributed code for IA64 that they wrote for partitioning.
