Downloads for training/development

[Probs]

Hi folks,

I'm not sure if I have posted this in the correct place (If not please move or let me know where I need to post this) is it possible to download VMWare products for lab/development work? Obviously I can download free trials but can only do this once and for certain products.  In some instances I am developing solutions for customers with older versions that I am struggling to get hold of.

If someone could point me in right direction regarding this it would be appreciated ...

AFAIK, Those kinds of privileges are available only if you are a partner company to VMware. Apart from that you will have to buy the license or try evaluation. Have you spoken to the VMware sales guys? If not talk to them and see if you can get hold of any such product licenses.

Hi there,

Thanks for the advice.  Do you have a contact address for someone I could speak to?  I appreciate partner status would probably allow this however I'm not sure how I go about getting that setup  ...

Cheers
