Back in May, VMware announced that VMware Workstation Pro and Fusion Pro would be free for non-commercial use. This was fantastic news for non-commercial users. However, a few days ago, they made an even better announcement: the free edition is now available to all users, including commercial users. While you can still purchase a license if you require support, the free version functions just as well, albeit without any support.
It appears that they are discontinuing Workstation Player and Fusion Player, as the functionality they offered is now included in the free version of Workstation and Fusion.
