VMware Attacks Microsoft Licence Changes

VMware Attacks Microsoft Licence Changes

The plot thickens! VMware, one of the most well know virtualization providers, has spoken up about the perceived attempt by Microsoft to restrict how Windows works with virtualization. Through licence language and actual computer code, it appears that Microsoft is attempting to lock out certain users and software companies.

This is all very Microsoft-esque. Since they own the sandbox, they want to determine who plays in it and how they do it. Microsoft has claimed they are doing this because of security reasons, but that theory has been pretty much debunked by the technology community.
