Wouldn't you be able to have only a single identity? Because unless you can have multiple identities with a single instance, it would be a very expensive way of having iMessage capabilities.

VMs have been a thing in the Mac world for a long time now, and these would be powerful enough to run a bunch of them.
I'm aware, but I thought iMessage had some hardware identifier that was necessary to use it. I guess my understanding was incorrect then!
The identifier is part of it, as I remember from my mackintosh days, but it cannot be all: MacOS works well as a multi-user system, including separate iMessage accounts for each user.
Aah, that's a good point.
