I will agree that the advantages the competition has over VMware are that

• they've officially released a product for M1 Macs and
• they've created virtual machine tools that make the Windows for ARM experience better.

What I disagree with is that the competition's product is the "solution to the problem". Their marketing veneer still ignores the two important details of Microsoft licensing and support. .

Ask yourself this: Why doesn't the competition tell you to buy a retail Windows product license and download an ISO from Microsoft to run Windows 11 as a virtual machine on an M1 Mac using their product? Why do they continue to tell you to download a (unsupported) Windows Insider Preview HyperV disk image in order  to run Windows 11 in their product?

What kind of solution is that? It's a science project.

As I say, you may be fine with accepting the risks of running a science project that's unlicensed and unsupported by its creator. Others (especially if you absolutely have to depend on Windows for your day to day work or you are running a Mac computer provided to you by your employer) may not be.

I will, however, also agree to change the article and my opinions should Microsoft change course.
