- p_l 2y agoNot everyone wants to go the court way to force a discount - lots of places are furiously looking at minimizing the time spent paying the hiked up prices.
- bluGill 2y agoIt would not surprise me if AT&T was playing with alternatives and just decided to pay up for a couple years while they learn more and figure out how to migrate. It is likely that the alternatives - with the influx of customers dropping vmware - get enough better in a couple years that vmware is much better.
