Indeed :)

There will be a combo box: "optimized for server/desktop". That one
will set up the dialog like you would open the new server/desktop today.
But you will be able to change them - it will be just some sugar. But there
is no reason
why would we enforce the disabling the e.g. soundcard for server. By default
we will, but
you can enable it if you want.
Ok, so in engine we will still have the VmType in vmStatic?
I think it would make sense to use it in scheduling / load balancing
- if a VM is a desktop and no user is connected to the console, then the VM is not in use,
therefore it is a good candidate for saving power (hibernate, migrate, shutdown, or any
other bad things that can happen to a VM)
- if a VM is a server, usually no user connected, but it may still be used through its
network. Therefore it may not be a good candidate to migrate.
