It is silly - it's apples and oranges. We will still need virtual machines for different operating systems, different versions of the same OS, multiple instances to span multiple VM hosts for scaling/redundancy, and so on. Containers will cut down on the number of VMs we have to deploy within an organisation, nominally... it will be a more effective way to manage resources. VMs won't go away, or even be diminished.
