Wow...where to begin. In the interest of proper disclosure, VMware did buy my last company and i did work there as a desktop subject matter expert for 14 months, however, that also gave me insight into the inner workings of the company that DEFINED the virtualization market.

No, VMware has not lost its mojo. It is going through the growth curve every company does when it creates radical new technology, spawns a multi billion dollar market, sees competition enter, and defends.

Pundits beat these companies up, because it sounds and sells more than RA ! RA ! RA !

I had a typewriter.

I had a calculator.

I had a PC.

IBM, Texas Instruments, and Dell are all still here.

So, now i have VDI. 

10 Years from now, VMware will be here, MOJO in tact.

And we will be beating up some other new technology innovator who has grown from the garage to IPO.

Just my $.02
