Conversely, virtualization allows you to keep older server hardware on-line longer and less expensively - you can avoid renewing service contracts and just run servers till they die since you can just vmotion the VMs to another physical server when the time comes. The only downside is per-CPU licensing for VMWare which may be way cheaper per app/VM on newer hardware. (More VMs per CPU license)
