I'm watching this conversation closely.  We're looking to replace our NetApp 
because our renewal maintenance costs basically tripled.  We of course had the 
option to upgrade our heads for around the same cost, but were surprised to 
find out that we would have to repurchase all of our software if we did so.
So Nutanix, Pure, and EMC have been banging on our door and one vendor is 
suggesting Nimble.

We also have a VNX 5400 (and a VNXe 3100), and we're going to dump it for 
Nimble in the middle of the year, once our support runs out.

The cost of renewing support will cover a new Nimble, basically, and we expect 
much improved performance.
