Cloud computing and virtualization software company VMware has announced that its flagship desktop software is now free for personal use. Individual users can now download and use VMWare Fusion Pro ...

VMware made a long-anticipated move July 22 when it announced that its ESXi hypervisor would be free. That doesn’t mean VMware customers can avoid pricey fees for support and management tools, though.

Somehow I missed this - VMware Fusion is now free for personal use. I've just dl'd a copy of 12.01 and VMware provided a perpetual license. It's nice to have a free/gratis alternative to Virtual Box.
