       | There's too many issues around ARM support and the fact that
       | other Linux and Windows machines generally won't be running ARM.
       | Apple Silicon also has expensive memory upgrades.

       | It's clear that VMware has hampered their ability to support
       | their products (bugs and time to get this release out).
       | 
       | It's disappointing, because I like the UI of VMware more than
       | Parallels (yes, probably because I used VMware for many years).

         | On my end I've tried Parallels but my use case involves a lot
         | of passing USB devices to a Windows or Linux VM and VMWare has
         | been much better for that.
         | 
         | Although... the point is moot now. I bought a new amd box for
         | running the x86 stuff, in preparation to moving my OS X machine
         | to Mx when I feel brave enough.
