Virtualization is hot, hot, hot. It’s even big in the consumer market when you’re talking about the Mac platform. VMware has been a player for a very long time in this market. Their Mac product, Fusion, is my virtualization product of choice.
Diane Greene, who helped found the company, has stepped down. Stock value stepped down with her. They’ve got some real competition in Microsoft on the other side of the fence. Their Mac product is going strong, but it too has competition in Parallels.
These are some tough times for the company. It’s be a shame if it continues because the competition has spurred some great pricing and features.
