Microsoft seeks premium to allow virtualization of Vista

Posted by Jeff as Companies

One more reason to not use Vista… I honestly don’t know what Microsoft is thinking here other than placating their hardware vendors. Again, this strikes me as a case of doing a solid for the vendors at the expense of the users. The really troubling thing about Microsoft’s penchant for strong license management is that they will know exactly how your copy of Vista is implemented…

AppleInsider | Microsoft seeks premium to allow virtualization of Vista:

In its licensing terms for Vista published this month, the Redmond, Wash.-based software giant said users of Vista Home Premium and Vista Home Basic “may not use the software installed on the licensed device within a virtual (or otherwise emulated) hardware system.”
