HOW? This is running on the same computer. No hardware changes. It’s a modern Mac, I *can’t* make any hardware changes. I don’t think I’ve even *rebooted* the machine since I last ran this VM.
Wait, there was an OS update last week. Did I last run this VM early in the week or later in the week?
I have no idea, because time has no meaning anymore.
But yeah, maybe it was early in the week and the latest point release reports something slightly differently to VMWare.
