http://www.didyouknow2012.com/NewHome.aspx ^^ There is a MS marketing page. Not sure if what you are looking for will be there but I think we are at the point where it is not 'What HyperV is missing?', we are at the stage of 'What free ESXi vs free HyperV gets you'.
Both HyperV and VMware are about feature parity now and fighting about the details that 99% of implementations won't care about and cost which will be fun for all us customers. As of this moment we're still primarily a VMware shop (~100 hosts), however the vTax* licensing had us look and we introduced HyperV for some of our in house solutions this last year. VMware has removed the vTax* licensing but that doesn't change the fact that we have 6 HyperV hosts now and are seriously looking at features and marketing vs reality over the next two remaining years of our contract. Steven Peck http://www.blkmtn.org * note, the vTax was seriously irritating to me (and more importantly my boss), we lost some of our training budget to fund it. It was very similiar to when we got hit with the 'Enterprise Plus' surprise shortly after our last contract renewel, so yes, there is a 'chip' involved and while we don't carry it into every meeting with our VMware sales guy, we carry it in occasionally and set it on the table.
