    That seems unlikely to persuade those people to continue using VMware, but good luck with that business strat Broadcom.

      The strategy, from day-1, was to dump low-tier customers and squeeze the big dogs. They knew this wasn’t a viable long-term plan. Broadcom knew they had captive customers in the large enterprise space who would take years to migrate. They want to rape all they can, cash out and kill the product someday. But hey! As long as they can squeeze, they will do so.

      I mean, fuck me, Oracle is still in business and that’s the model Broadcom is going for.

        Yeah. Let’s not get started on fucking Oracle. We’ll be here all day. Or year, possibly.

    The not owning anything is ridiculous. We need clear regulation that makes it so companies cant do bullcrap like this. If I buy something, I own it, period.
