Woah! Broadcom Could Acquire VMware for $60 Billion
======
Broadcoms interested to acquire VMware for $60 billion, making it one of the biggest tech deals in 2022.
![broadcom][1]
Broadcom, a semiconductor chip company, is infamous among desktop Linux users for the incompatibility issues with its wireless adapter/card and drivers.
And, it is now planning to get into the cloud computing market by acquiring one of the biggest players in the industry, i.e., **VMware**.
VMware is not an open-source company, but it offers some open-source tools and Linux support for its virtualization software.
In this case, **The Wall Street Journal** [reports][2] that Broadcom and VMware can potentially announce this acquisition later this week on Thursday.
### Broadcom to Enter the Cloud Computing Market
[Broadcom][3] should be a familiar name to Linux users when we talk about wireless network chips and their drivers.
And, with the $60 billion deal for [VMware][4], they could expand their take on the industry through VMwares reach in the cloud computing sector.
So, their decision also influences the talk about the acquisition by Broadcom.
Hence, it is safe to say that the deal may or may not go through if the discussions fall apart.
And, for the payment to succeed, the report also mentions that Broadcom plans to take help of banks for a $40 billion debt package.
Considering that the report mentions the final price is still up for discussion, the $60 billion value can change (but something around it).
### Wrapping Up
You can keep an eye on VMwares shares and Broadcom Inc if you are someone who is interested in getting involved in the market.
What do you think about Broadcom acquiring VMware? Do you think its going to go through with Dell involved with a major stake in the company? Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments below.

震惊!博通或以 600 亿美元收购 VMware
======
Broadcoms interested to acquire VMware for $60 billion, making it one of the biggest tech deals in 2022.
博通有意以 600 亿美元收购 VMware这或将成为 2022 年最大的科技交易之一。
![博通][1]
<ruby>博通<rt>Broadcom</rt></ruby> 是一家半导体芯片公司,其无线适配器/无线网卡和驱动程序的不兼容问题,使得它在桌面 Linux 用户中臭名昭著。
现在,它正计划通过收购业内最大的参与者之一,也就是 **VMware**,来进入云计算市场。
VMware 不是一家开源公司,但它为其虚拟化软件提供了一些开源工具和 Linux 支持。
**《华尔街日报》** [报道][2],博通和 VMware 可能会在本周四5 月 26 日的晚些时候宣布此次收购。LCTT 译注:抱歉,我们来晚了……)
### 博通进军云计算市场
当谈到无线网络芯片及其驱动程序时,[博通][3] 应该是一个 Linux 用户熟悉的名称。
现在,若能以 600 亿美元交易收购 [VMware][4],他们就可以借助 VMware 在云计算领域的影响力,来扩大自身在该行业的影响力。
因此,他们的决定也会影响有关博通收购的讨论。
可以肯定地说,如果讨论的意见不一,这笔交易就不一定能继续进行下去了。
为了能够成功支付(这笔巨款),该报告还提到博通计划接受银行提供的 400 亿美元的债务帮助。
考虑到该报告提到最终价格仍有待讨论600 亿美元的价值可能会发生变化但不会太大LCTT 译注:最新的数字是 610 亿美元,该收购预计要到 2023 年才能完成。)
### 说在最后
如果你有兴趣踏入股市,(这段时间)你可以关注一下 VMware 的股票和博通公司(的动态)。
你怎么看待博通收购 VMware 这件事呢你认为它最后的结局会是戴尔成为公司的大股东吗LCTT 译注这里的关系有点复杂简单来说VMware 曾经是 EMC 的子公司,后来戴尔收购了 EMC再后来 VMware 独立。)
有任何想法,都请在下面的评论中分享吧!
