Keep your eyes wide open before marriage, half shut afterwards.

I have been married, yes, to the same woman, for 49+ years.
The secrets to a lasting relationship are:
- Pig-headed stubbornness.
- A lot of good luck.
- Separate Bathroms.
True!

I agree. I got you by a few years.
I wait until noon to put my hearing aids in, I just nod my head knowingly.

I know I could use VMWare Workstation Player, but as I write software for a living and expect to get paid, I try to buy stuff if its not ridiculously priced (looking at you SciTools). Anyway, years ago I purchased VMWare Workstation 14.0 and upgraded to 15.0 when it came out. I'm in the process of rebuilding toward a new laptop, and *everything* is getting segmented into virtual machines.
My question - VMWare Workstation 16.0 is out. Would you upgrade to just run the latest?
thx

I've been using VMware for 20+ years. My "strategy" has been to upgrade every other version as changes aren't usually that significant. Currently I'm on version 15 and I was looking to skip 16. The fact that VMware got sold to Broadcom and they are looking to switch to a subscription model gets me worried. I might get 16 just to be safe.

Oh f***! I did not realize VMWare had been bought and heading toward subscription. That will instantly end my relationship with them.

I only upgrade when I need it for some feature that is only in the new version. Mostly, they seem to take away stuff in the Linux versions.
Comment about subscription model: I have not heard that, but all software seems headed for that business model if they can get away with it.
IMHO: the only thing keeping the update model going is constant changes to the Windows OS

Every subscription model I have experienced has radically increased my costs. It's called renting vs. owning. I get why companies want to do it, but it prices me away.
Let's take Office for example... why do I need to subscribe to EVERYTHING when I only use 1% of what you are offering? That's a rhetorical question
SciTools puts out a great product for code analysis. They caught my eye, since they supported analyzing FORTRAN. Then they went subscription. The license I purchased I guess changed from perpetual to annual. My $400 one time expense went to over $1k annually. For a tool I use sporadically, no dice.
I guess I need to start learning Oracle Box.
