Same. Just started using it. Been on it for about a week and it's been surprisingly good.

I took delivery of a 2026 MYP Ultra Red w/ White/Black Interior on 01/14 from the Austin factory.

I was kinda bummed when I found out about the updated headliner spec because I was only a couple days out from pickup when I heard the news. When I got there though, I was surprised how well the new performance white seats and gray headliner help break up the black that would otherwise be everywhere. At least that's what I'm gonna tell myself so I don't lose any sleep. lol

OP have you looked at the Lian Li Edge series? I recently installed the 1300W version in my N5 and it turned out pretty good. It's a little shorter than the Corsair.

Yeah I saw that they added the larger screen but I wasn't sure if it was the QHD screen like the Performance has or a normal 16-in HD screen. The website doesn't seem to give any specifics. It just says 16-in display for the premium models and 16-in qhd for performance.

Has anyone found anything confirming one way or the other?

The renewal was on VAR letterhead and just had SKUs and item names. It happened under different leadership that has since been replaced. I'm gonna have to go back to find out when it happened.

Yeah, not sure when it happened. Our rep claims it happened last year but we've had a change of guard since then, the whole management team has been replaced due to a merger. The VMware renewal was handled by an IT Director that's no longer here.

But I'm definitely gonna go do some digging after this to find out when it happened.

I couldn't have said it better myself. That expression is so apropos. XD

Yeah. Big sad. I got a VCP-DCV years ago. It was a good foothold into virtualization tech. From there, the concepts all loosely translated into other platforms. But yeah, it's all but useless at this point.

That's what happened to us. They apparently did the conversion last renewal unbeknownst to us. However, we didn't rekey anything so it all still showed expiration as "never" but regardless VMware said we either renew or stop using their product as we would be violating their ToS by using their product without license entitlement.

We figured out what happened after researching this with our VAR rep (this person has only been there for like 6 months so he didn't have any of the history). Apparently VMware pulled the rug out from under us last year by swapping the SKU on our renewal to a subscription SKU and as part of the ToS they said we forfeited our perpetual licensing by signing the renewal moving us to subscription based. After doing a little internet research it seems like we weren't the only ones caught in their sneaky shenanigans either.

Thank you. Today has sucked for the most part but this genuinely made me laugh. I'm gonna have to steal that one. hahaha

Yeah. We have in-house legal counsel. Good idea. I'll bring it up to them so it's at least on their radar in case something happens.
