Thanks to tacticalogic for the heads up!!
1,000 VMs ON A SINGLE HOST?! WOW! This is the change we’ve been waiting for.
I spent a week trying to strip down a core install and couldn’t manage to get it under 8 GB without breaking something. I am very excited at the prospect of 100% removal of 32-bit crap from my OS.
64-bit has been around since at least 2005 for Windows and even earlier for Nix and Itanium-based computing. I foresee a future where 32-bit support exists in a VM bubble, but most of the 32-bit applications about which I care are video games I can do without.
