That's so blazing fast today... Not like 15 to 20 years ago when you hit F5, CTRL-ALT-DEL->SPACE and went off to get the next coffee.

You need to run more stuff in the background to slow it down! Coffee time is sacred

Just checked my current workstation: Xeon 1240, 32GB RAM, SSD, bla bla. There are always like 5 or 6 VMs running, one with a SQL Server workload, a billion browser windows on at least 2 browsers, Office, Visual Studio, some PDFs... I guess I could start reencoding videos in the background to make it sweat

What kind of licensing does Microsoft and others offer for people who need to dick around with hypervisors, namely hyper-v and vsphere? Is there a "good" way to do it that is cost effective for a home lab?

Hyper-V is free, so the licensing would be with the Server OS.
Which you can download free trials from their website which last for 180 days.

Oh cool. I'm just going to pay for the OS. From what I'm seeing here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/cloud-platform/windows-server-2012-r2-pricing your options are pretty limited if you want to have a lot of different VM's running.

Why buy a Server OS for a home lab? You can continually download the trials or just reinstall a new trial over and over.
No harm no foul.
Unless you're made of money or have a money tree.
Do you have a money tree?
