Jeffy,
I have had several discussions with multiple MM sales reps, and each have clearly noted that the license can be split across multiple machines, if necessary (i.e., 2 machines with 1 CPU each). As far as a developers license, you could always download the trial, which later converts to a single IP version after expiration, a la ColdFusion.
OK, back to Mach-II talk!!
Regards, Dave.

You may be right.
I was under the impression 2-CPU license meant "1 machine w/ 2 CPUs". I thought the inference was that Flex won't run well on a single CPU machine.
I never thought of taking that sort of license and putting it on two separate single CPU machines. ( I guess you'd have to read the license to figure out more details).

I'm working with a company now that is thinking about the RIA route. They have 2 clustered servers serving their site. Based on what I understand you cannot buy a single processor license of flex, it must be on a dual processor machine. The cost of the two Flex licenses (?Plus an additional development license?) would come close to paying for a full time Flash developer. Which would be better use of this companies money? I suspect the additional developer.
