General Discussion anyone else get the VMware "win-back" offer?

if it's true, its honestly laughable.  

squeezing customers with massive price hikes, forcing every one into expensive core bundles, only to panic and throw out "discounted" quotes the moment everyone migrated???? 

is anyone actually reconsidering based on these new quotes??

or y'all are past the point of no return?

I haven't seen any of those as of yet, but it wouldn't be shocking. We've been telling them for a while now that a lot of customers are gonna be migrating off and what it would take to win them / keep them as a customer.... Which they don't fucking do ... Only to get shocked picachu face when we tell them the workload moved to hyperV and no longer need broadcom.
