VMware customers beware, software licensing prices might not change right away, or may even drop a little in the short term, but the plan appears to be to jack up prices VERY significantly over the next 3 years based on what I saw today on an internal document - this is the plan.
I state this neutrally, business is business after all and raising prices for widgets is fair game for any company who has willing buyers. But I would not want to be a VMware product buyer right now, I'd be looking at alternatives at this point.
