Correct. Linux runs on lots of different hardware, including Macs. MacOS does not. Presumably VR is not selling their in-house developed software to non-Epic resorts. Aspenware will sell to any resort that is interested.
Experience of a lifetime especially if yer a fish nearby.

Anyone else getting offered Epic Pass Promotional pricing? I just got an email offering $75 off any of their pass options. Wonder if sales are down?
Did you previously have an Epic pass and did not renew?

Even with that Boomer Pass at Sugarbush recently, which was essentially free skiing for 65+ midweek, the place was dead midweek, although Friday is the new Saturday at Killington, I am told.

For context, where parking is a limited by available space in the west, paid parking started a few years ago. All parking at Alta, including on the spaces on the town road was paid for 2021-22 on weekends and holidays until 1pm. Season Passholders were given a code so that parking would be free. Someone who bought a day ticket in advance got a code for $15 off the $25 parking fee. Solitude went to all paid parking a few years ago. Price goes down when there are more people in the vehicle. Solitude season passes also function as a UTA bus pass. The parking fees pay for making that happen. Similar situations near Seattle I think.What percentage of skier visits are weekend and holidays?

The advantage ski towns like Steamboat Springs, Aspen, or Taos have is that they developed good public bus systems quite a while back. So the fact that parking near the base of lifts is limited isn't as big a deal.
Stowe hasn't made improving the bus system a priority. That requires a lot of cooperation and planning between town and ski resort, so the transportation issues started before VR bought Stowe.
