Yeah, server and player are both low end hook products for which there 
are loads of competitors. Workstation is aimed at software developers 
and demonstrators (afaict it has many features for things like debugging 
kernels and handling a whole network of vm's as a group). Infrastructure 
(formerly ESX) is aimed at large scale server deployments (it can do 
things like migrate virtual machines between hosts without ever having 
to take them down).
