That's fine. You made the switch to another great product. You really don't have a reason to switch back.

In my case, I'm still running ESXi 6.5, it would be nice if I could do an easy upgrade (although, I doubt it since I think they were up to like 8.0 or something when they put a price tag on it), without having to move all my crap somewhere else, upgrade, then move everything back. If that's the case, I'll probably just stick with this one until the server dies. Just start fresh with a new server.

Regards,
Nick
