>>>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.

I don't know what the MSDN EULA says, Alan.
But what I do remember is this topic coming up when VFP7 came out and some daring folks were implemented (from their MSDN downloads) the next day.
And it does make sense - you are not using the (development) tools in production, but rather the product(s) of those tools.
