The graphics support in particular sounds like a total mess:
> For Graphics, Fusion 13 sports OpenGL 4.3 in Windows and Linux VMs on Intel, and in Linux VMs on Apple Silicon.
> On Intel, Windows continues to enjoy DirectX 11 graphics, and Fusion continues to support eGPU devices for incredible performance using some of the fastest GPU’s available.
> On Apple Silicon, Fusion can deliver OpenGL 4.3 with blazing fast 3D hardware acceleration to arm-based Linux virtual machines with Linux kernel 5.19 or greater.
So if I am reading this correctly, Windows on Apple Silicon doesn't have accelerated 3D at all? And even on Intel they are 10 full years behind with no support for DirectX 12.

I guess this is what happens six years after firing the entire team, once you can no longer coast on past innovations. https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2016/01/vmwar...
