VCF 9.0 Server Certification: Preserving Your Hardware Investment and giving the best ROI

Executive Summary VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) 9.0 is designed to enable customers to modernize their cloud infrastructure, and part of that design is doing so without forcing unnecessary hardware refresh cycles.

@keepandroidopen I should point out that on #Android 16, both #Google and #Samsung contacts apps FAILED to import legit #vcf contacts files; they may be trying to force you to use cloud. The workaround is to use #Fossify and that is what works for me. https://brave.com/blog/keep-android-open/

For my second entry in #marchintosh is this #spicyPillow in a 2012 Mac Pro. IIRC I picked this up at #EFM #electronicsFleaMarket on the cheap, fully intended for a project but was packed up from the move. Unpacked the box this weekend, and noted the lid being pushed out – and upon opening noted the touchpad broken in half.

I opened it up & pulled out the spicy pillow, installing a spare battery I had on hand. Connected power, and it booted! The touchpad works, but to click/double click you have to push down to make the touchpad level while clicking/double clicking. Time to find a replacement touchpad, and when I do then also max out the RAM while installing an SSD.
