de-Appled my life, is a credit or license transfer to Linux Workstation Pro possible?

Purged all Apple products from my life and no longer need my Fusion Pro v11.5 license.  I know this is a long shot, but is there a credit or transfer program where I could switch over to Linux Workstation Pro and pay the difference?

I could run the VMWare Linux Player for free, but typically need 3-6 VMs at any time.  VirtualBox is always an option, but prefer the speed and rock solid reliability of VMWare products.

Any suggestions?

You can run multiple VMs at a time with Player - you just need to launch a new Player window for each VM - you can't run multiple in the same main program window like Workstation Pro does.

I don't think so - totally different product lines.
