It may have been. I forget where I saw the report, but noticed it 
specifically because it mentioned vms. It may have been one of the hp sites.

Vms should be ideal for this sort of work. Robust, very secure and with 
decades of rigorous development behind it. It's a shame its not more 
visible elsewhere...
