Yep, it's kernel-level virtualization. One kernel runs multiple 
"containers" each of which has their own "ps" and network ports and IP 
addresses. It is the same "OS" in that they're all using the very 
selfsame kernel, but you can run different OS distros, sharing the same 
kernel.

It's very spiffy -- IF you don't have a need to run muliple kernels, 
multiple OSs, etc.
