Hi,

I think OpenVZ 7 (the latest release) does support Windows, though only running in a KVM VM and not in a container. OpenVZ 7 added the option to create VMs that was previously only available in Virtuozzo, and so you can create containers for Linux guests and VMs for all non-Linux guests on OpenVZ 7 (or you should be able to at least, according to the documentation I can see). So if you're familiar with OpenVZ, then OpenVZ 7 is probably the best way to go, since you can use both containers and full-blown real VMs on the same host.

However, if the issue here is that you are actually wanting to make day-to-day use of your own PC whilst being able to run containers and VMs on it (which I think might be what your comments about SmartOS imply), then your options are a bit more limited. Things like OpenVZ/SmartOS/ESX are meant to run on a dedicated server that does nothing but host containers and VMs. You then connect remotely to those containers and VMs to use them in whatever way you see fit (SSH, rdesktop, etc), and can also connect remotely to the hardware node to manage it.

If you're looking to be setting up VMs or containers on your own PC, then running a normal desktop-oriented Linux distro locally and using KVM/QEMU to run VMs on it might be a good way forward. Similarly you could run Windows 10 or Windows Server locally and add the Hyper-V role, and create VMs that way whilst still having a usable "real" desktop OS too. Or just use VirtualBox or something like that if your needs are simpler.
