They haven't release any patches since... :(
- toyg 11y agoBut they had the gall of running promotions on twitter...
- jlgaddis 11y agoYeah, and since I had just "switched" back to Mac and had a shiny, new MBP, I jumped and bought it. I don't think I had even used it yet when they announced the layoffs. :/
- wila 11y agoJason has actually been rehired. [0]. You're correct on no patches since, but patches never were that fast anyways. [0] https://twitter.com/jdotk/status/709520637396656128 https://twitter.com/jdotk/status/709520637396656128
- nailer 11y agoIf you're on OS X, Veertu uses the inbuilt OS X hypervisor and has waay less interactive latency than Fusion did, seemingly as a result. It's also significantly cheaper.
- toyg 11y agoMy problem with veertu is the same as with Hyper-V: it's not crossplatform. With all its warts, VMW offered the best turnkey solution for small teams occasionally sharing VMs in offline contexts.
