Considered, very briefly. I have had great success and stability with 
running VirtualBox on both CentOS 5 & 6 for the few Windoze apps that my 
clients need to run and have up on a server 24x7. The set ups I am using 
have been running reliably for over 8 years and remote manged with zero 
issues - HUGE thanks to the CentOS team for an awesome OS system delivery
Thus, I have simply installed the latest VirtualBox on CentOS 7 and gone 
from there. I was aware that systemd existed and deliberately waited 
until this year to upgrade the hardware and OS, thinking issues like 
this should have been sorted by now.
Are there any good tutorial / howtos for KVM? Although at this point I 
am back on another continent and reluctant to shift to KVM when over 20 
hours fly time away from the server.
