>>I'm unsure what it means in the EULA (or at least what is up on the MS web site) to say that a development tool cannot be used in a production environment? Do you know what that is about? The EULA refers to all products, not just O/S's.

I see. Not having the MSDN full EULA, it's hard to know. I saw that on the web site - that none of the products can be used in a production environment - and I couldn't figure out what that would mean in terms of say, Visual Studio. It almost seems meaningless, but I guess there is a lot more in the EULA that is not posted on the site that would clarify a lot of the questions.
Thanks
