I’m at a VMUG (VMware User Group) meeting right now.
I’m told that the kit is still available to customers.
And I’m told it still works.

My concern was that tools built on this tech might stop working.
That concern is not valid. Those tools will still work.

I’m in the planning process of replacing our data center equipment which is already expensive. Was planning on moving from vsphere to nutanix to reduce the costs, this move guts me. WTF.
