Absolutely. We use Xen on every server if for nothing else than a means
of easy remote recovery. Sometimes we just make 1 guest, and give the
guest the full resources of the server. Saves us many trips to the data
center.

Ubuntu is also a very good choice :) If you plan on using KDE and
friends on dom-0 you may want to go with Dapper vs Edgy. I haven't tried
Edgy in a few weeks so it may be a little more stable than it was the
last time I used it.

I have over 400 + co-located servers from dual P-III's all the way up to
new AMD Athalon X2's, all using Xen and all very happy. Our over all
up-time has really increased since we phased it in. 

Considering its free, and installation is rather simple its sort of
silly not to use it.. even just for a management layer.

Best,
-Tim
