Re: VMware vSphere
What your customer will be purchasing and installing is VMWare ESXi, the "Bare metal hypervisor" - fancy terms for "VMWare's OS".
There's no "vSphere" to actually go and install at this point, although if you setup a virtualised data center, you're doing it under vsphere.

Re: VMware vSphere
So that means we still need to advise the customer to purchase and install the VMware ESX/ESXi rather than telling them to purchase the whole vSphere package, right?

Vsphere is only a version name of ESX/ESXi,
so if you like to have the latest Vmware for virtualisation, you need to buy,
VMware 4 "Vsphere" update1 for example
"VSphere" = something like codename for VmwareESX server version.

Re: VMware vSphere
Yes. There are also several different levels of licensing for ESX. Depending upon their needs (I.E. Do they want/need vmotion? HA/DRS?, Distributed vSwitches, etc.)

Re: VMware vSphere
You can go from free, to a lot of money depending on what you're doing.
ESX or ESXi installs directly onto the hardware. You can do that at no cost and use a client to manage this, create and run virtual guest servers etc.
Where vSphere comes into it's own is the stuff you pay for. For that you need vCenter and licenses for the advanced features. These can provide high availability and dynamic resource sharing.
Try visiting the Vmware site itself to get an idea of the vSphere / ESXi product sets.
