Microsoft releases Viridian hypervisor along with Windows Server 2008 RC0

Virtualization.info reports that Windows Server 2008 RC0 contains a first preview version of new Microsoft hypervisor Windows Server Virtualization (WSV), codename Viridian.
As expected the hypervisor comes as a server role, but the surprising news is that virtualization role is available also for complete installations of Windows, not only Server Core one as originally stated by Microsoft.
This may change once started the beta program, but if it stays this way it may imply Microsoft is changing its plans for hypervisor integration, and may even consider embedding a specific version for desktop operating systems (e.g.: Vista).
