re: VMware and Broadcom acquisition - interesting article on Hock Tan (new
name you likely will hear more about)
<https://www.nextplatform.com/2022/05/26/with-vmware-broadcom-has-a-real-ent
erprise-software-stack/>
"And Tan is legendary for making expensive acquisitions, cutting costs
relentlessly, and making them pay for themselves. And Tan wants a bigger and
more distributed software business than the Symantec security and CA systems
management businesses it has spent a fortune on and still squeezed a lot of
profit from."

Loosely translated - while many view VMware costs as already very high,
expect VMware costs to increase in the future.
