Reading Time: < 1 minutePurple screen of the death are the “blue” screen of VMware ESXi when something really wrong happen, usually at hardware level. They are not so common, unless you stay in the Hardware Compatibility List (HCL) and have reliable hardware.

But please consider this product like a major release, there are several changes, but also new features and scalability properties that make interesting for each new environment, but also for existing customers (with an active subscription if you have a 5.5 version, so that you can also upgrade your 5.x license keys).

In realtà bisognerebbe fare un distinguo tra software OpenSource e software libero (Free Software) che però richiederebbe post dedicati (rimando a questa pagina sul sito del progetto GNU). La verità è che a parte i concetti (assolutamente importanti e fondamentali), da un punto di vista del business (che poi è quello che interessa alle aziende) le differenze potrebbero essere non così rilevanti. Per questo motivo nel resto del post i due termini saranno trattati come “sinomi” (benché non lo siano).
