I may only use VMware workstation pro for desktop virtualization for lab use, and I do realize the ramifications for enterprise operations are exponentially greater. But even I am getting a worse service. I used to be able to google an issue, find a link to the VMware forum and just open that. Now *.vmware.com redirects to broadcom.com and searching for the post there seldom finds it again. Absolutely brilliant timing for google to kill cached pages.
