![]() ![]() Yes VMware was spun off from Dell (which IMO is a very, very good thing), and Pat Gelsinger decided to move on. I don't know what the "Losing their CEO" has to do with it. I'm concerned that it's taken so long, as they are faced with the same dilemma in supporting Macs as Parallels has due to Apple's decision to stop using Intel. But if you're dependent on the Mac as a fancier platform to run Windows, well, Apple cut the mooring lines on that ship and it's currently drifting without power in the middle of the ocean. ![]() It appears that VMware's vision of where Fusion (and Workstation) fit into their overall product strategy is vastly different than what Parallels' is. ![]() Us mere mortals don't have NDAs with them where they might speak openly about their plans. On top of that MSFT has already said that windows running on an M1 Mac either virtual or otherwise is not a supported scenario and won’t be.Īs far as "lack of direction", well, we have no idea on what VMware is doing behind the scenes. VMware had plenty of notice and time for the Apple Silicon transition that it’s crazy they are still in a tech demo. Losing their CEO must have hurt though, not updating their tech beta since Sept 2021 is a good indication of a lack of direction. The same slower approach you are praising is putting them behind. with a lot of our Mac fleet moving to M1, VMWare is less and less appealing. Am aware, the only reason we use VMWare at my org is because it’s enterprise and we get a deal on it. ![]()
