I fail to see you logic, please elaborate on that. Why should I care what 5 other people are running when I get a better bang for my buck with a technology I use, costs less and provides me a means to contribute back into the community pool.

You use the VIC client, which does not require the VIC server but can
connect directly to any ESX/ESXi host.  After you install ESXi you
navigate to the box with a web browser and there is a link to download
VIC directly from the host.

yes, but there is technology shortcomings there, it requires me to invest in Windows as a base OS, which in turn means a lot of other legal and vendor lock in issues.

Anyway, I think the point is made, Vmware is by far the most locked in product out there, offers medium to low performance compared to other similar products, however has a lower user ability threshold to get into.
