In my experience, Microsoft doesn't mind what you do, as long as you buy a license for each CPU it runs on. They don't care if it's virtual, nor if it's accessed remotely as long as there's only one person at a time accessing it. If you want to use one piece of software with several people at the same time, I think you need to look at a CITRIX-like solution.
