Oracle Enterprise Linux 4 and 5;
REL3, RHEL4 and RHEL5;
Windows 2003, Windows Server 2003 and Windows XP are supported on Hardware Virtualized (HV) capable hardware;

I think for Oracle Partners this is a very nice tool to test and run different Oracle products on one machine to reduce the hardware cost. Let's see if they will add support for SUSE, SLES, Debian and Solaris x86...
