ESXi Free Hypervisor
I'm not sure if this is true, but someone mentioned to me a while ago that VMWare has a free version of ESXi that is free but limits the total usable RAM GB to 32. Does anyone know if this is true and where it is on the VMWare site?
I'm not sure if it limits the number of VM's, just the GB of RAM

Much appreciated.
thank you for the link ThinkSpaceSolutions and thank you Andrew for the clarification on your site that its the same download but different keys.
We already have an account with VMWare and ESxi plus (i think that's what its called. we've had it for a few years), but i couldn't figure out the free version or where to get it as they all looked the same.

Another option would be to check on the site of your server manufacturer. Most of them have adapted versions of ESXi which you can download from there. Those versions have adaptations included which are adapted to your server's hardware and make it easier to monitor and manage your hardware.
