Hey Everybody,

Please forgive the total off-topicness, but it seems quite a few people  
here are into Xen virtualization and I was hoping some of you could  
point out some online docs/tutorials that make it easy and quick to get  
up and running with Xen (I’ve tried the official site, but my eyes start  
to glaze over).

Thanks!
