    I thought I'd sprinkle a bit of home lab cheer for you all in this world-wide cooped-up weekend we're all in together. I thought you might find at least one or two tips in here that you didn't already know about vSphere Web Client, let me know!

    Got some more tips? Here's your chance for fame, just leave a comment below, with no login required!

    In this 2 minute video, I'll be showing you:

    1. Dark Mode toggle (Switch Theme)
    2. VM sort order naming tip
    3. VM Summary tab / SWITCH TO NEW VIEW [toggle]
    4. Host-only view, go to My Preferences / Inventory tab, turn off "Show VMs in Hosts and Clusters view" checkbox
    5. My Preferences - Default Console tab, select your preferred VM console, either Web Console or VMware Remote Console (VRMC)

    I cannot believe the traction this little tweet had, I guess short videos are where it's at. It didn't hurt that VMware retweeted this to 317K followers.

    After 6 successful years testing then shipping well over 1,000 Xeon D Bundles, Wiredzone had to stop selling them in mid-2021 due to cost, supply, and logistics challenges. So far, Xeon D-1700/2700 (Ice Lake D) was a minor refresh for 2023, with Xeon D-1800/2800 (Granite Rapids D) refresh looking a little better for 2024. More cores, but still just PCIe Gen4 and DDR4. Looking ahead, I'm glad it's Pat Gelsinger at Intel's helm. I'm also grateful to have had the honor of working at VMware when Pat was the CIO there. I'll leave it at that, given the whole Broadcom thing.
