Hi Alex

Last time I checked the advantages of VirtualBox vs KVM were (for the 
technical part):
- sata support
- usb2 support
- audio hd support
- rdp/rdp+usb support
- a somewhat simpler network configuration method
and, icing on the cake, they have a CLI/API to ease 
administration/integration.

(Yes most of those are in the PUEL version, but still, it works and is 
free as in free beer)

Cheers,
Gildas
