RE: Linux For Windows

["Paul Sims" <nospam [at] lombard.co.uk>]

ok, here's what the ICL Microsoft helpdesk (ICL internal desk) in 
Footscray, Kent (ICL outsource MS' helpdesk operations globally - if anyone 
can give a definitive statement "straight from Bill's mouth" it's them. 
Here's what they have told me:

The MS license, in the case of my laptop, is personal - it applies to my 
laptop and my copy of Win98. It does not matter where it is used, the 
license applies and there is no implication for the site where it is used 
EXCEPT if it is attached to an NT server and the no. of valid licenses on 
that server is then exceeded by making the connection.

If you can provide evidence that other regulations apply please do so.
