Hi, I got an extra copy of Windows Business Edition and I want to pop it into my new mac once I get it. But I was reading this article about the Vista EULA and virtualization.
http://www.macworld.com/news/2007/02/01/virtualvista/index.php
It says Only Ultimate and Enterprise editions can only be used with VM software like Parallels.
Considering the Apple website doesn't mention this when they talk about using windows and parallels I'm assuming this restriction was changed by Microsoft?
My second question is whether I can install one copy of Vista for Bootcamp in a windows partition and the other in parallels for the mac partition. Would that violate the EULA as well since you are activating the same copy of windows twice on different partitions?
Thanks in advance.
