...or is it that each additional *windows* based VM requires an
additional license (which is fairy-nuff) and any NON-windows VMs don't
require a separate MS license?

I guess what I'm trying to work out is whether the ability to run
additional VMs requires an additional license or whether its the OS *IN*
the VM that requires an additional license.

Hi chaps,

I'm looking at porting some of our VMWare VMs to HyperV instead. We have
a new server running 2008 Standard. The MS licensing page for HyperV
says that I can run one VM server on the Standard edition and that
additional licenses are required for each VM.

Does that mean an additional 2008 Standard license is needed for each VM
or do they sell a separate VM license for additional VMs in 2008
Standard ?
