Dom0, a special domain (VM) too runs on top of Xen ESX, COS is not the host as VMkernel runs the hardware Here too, COS is a special VM running on top of VMkernel. There is also something similar in Hyper-V In Hypervisor based Virtualisation Softwares, I do think the control consoles are host as they do not really host the VMs. They can just communicate with the Virtualization Layer which other user created VMs cannot. And Hypervirsor based virtualizations softwares are installed on bare metal. Of course, VirtualBox, VMware server, VPC all needs bases OS as the host.

[Ilugc] which Linux distros are dying?
Read: http://codingexperiments.com/archives/149 the article use Google Trend to measure, during the period 2004 - 2008. the article quotes this guy's theory "On the Web, If You're Not Growing, You're Dying" http://www.louisgray.com/live/2008/06/on-web-if-youre-not-growing-youre-dying.html it shows Debian, Redhat, Fedora, Suse, OpenSuse, Slackware declining. but Ubuntu grows a lot. the last graph shows the term ubuntu has become almost as popular as Linux. I did a Google Trend search with all of these "debian, redhat, fedora, slackware, suse, opensuse , ubuntu" http://www.google.com/trends?q=debian%2C+redhat%2C+fedora%2C+slackware%2C+suse%2C+opensuse+%2C+ubuntu&ctab=0&geo=all&date=all&sort=1 but Google Trend seems to have limitation of 5 terms.
