OK, I know nothing about virtualization. But if you’re a Linux shop,
apparently there’s an open source VM environment called Incus. I virtually
(pun intended) never hear of it, so I assume it isn’t that popular.
I only know about it because I used to have Sun Cobalt server appliances and
t
Proxmox.
I won't spew my hate toward Broadcom because most of them don't have
anything to do with vm servers.

Is there anything that didn’t originate at Xerox PARC?

That's pretty insightful. A psychologist today would probably frame in the
autism spectrum, and the two camps would be called "neurotypical" and
"neurodivergent", but otherwise it would be pretty much the same advice.

That reminds me, I watched a Netflix documentary last night about Compaq.

XCP-NG + XenOrchestra has been running great in production for many years

I’m positive I heard about that reverse engineering method in relation to
Compaq’s BIOS. They had to be sure to duplicate everything the IBM BIOS did so
they could guarantee 100% compatibility, but could not risk even the appearance
of copying source code. If anything ended up the same it woul

Broadcom has a strange history. I remember in the late 1990s attending ANSI

So most likely your perpetual licenses are for unsupported versions. You
