VMware says Microsoft 'shenanigans' led to new VMworld restrictions

,----[ Quote ]
| One year ago, Microsoft handed out casino chips directing VMworld attendees 
| to a Web site titled ?VMware costs way too much.? At the time, Microsoft was 
| a ?gold sponsor? of VMworld. But at this year?s show in San Francisco 
| Microsoft is no longer a sponsor and claims that new VMworld rules prevent it 
| from exhibiting the latest version of System Center Virtual Machine Manager 
| on the show floor. Citrix has made similar complaints.
