You need a license for every system.  Check with MS to confirm, but you need
to look at it as though you were simply enabling it to run on every
computer.  TS does not save on licensing costs.

For example if you have 50 systems you would need to install Office on, but
instead you install TS you need 50 copies of Office.  MS generally did away
with concurrency, but some companies still have older contracts in place.

I have been told to treat each Terminal Server USER as a separate machine.  

I don't know if licensing is really per user or per concurrent user since
everybody works the same hours the number of concurrent users equals the
total number of users. 

I know for a fact though that you can't just purchase one copy of office for
the terminal server and call it good.

Of course every answer we tell you is wrong, and any answer from an official
MS rep (written of course) is right :-)

Dear List,

A coleague just made me a question I couldn't answer... maybe someone out
there can...

If I have a Terminal server runing TS in aplication mode, having w2000
clients (thus needing no TS licenses), and install MS Office in that server,
how many licenses of MS Office must I buy considering that it's only
installed in one machine?

And how about licensing for other products?

Any info will be most welcome.
