Actually on further inspection it may not be a good tip after all.

From the license:

So they may well have a auto termination of the betta in there 
somewhere.

The funniest bit of the license I thought:

>Licensee shall obtain VMware's prior written approval to disclose
>such information to VMware, and without such prior written 
>approval from VMware, Licensee shall not disclose any such
>information to VMware.
