[BootCamp+VMware]: Which license?

[Dias]

Hi guys

I need a new license of Vista64 for my new MacBook and I was wondering which version was for me. I'm undecided between OEM and Student Edition.

I'd like to install it on my Mac using Bootcamp, but I also would like to virtualize it with VMware (the same Bootcamp partition).

I heard that some version of vista have Varitualization limits, can you confirm?

Basically I'd like to know if I should go with OEM o Student Edition of Vista64 (probabily HomePremium). :)

Thanks

You can defintiely install, & also virtualize on the same machine, any retail version of Vista. It used to be just Business & Ultimate, but they changed the rules (it's in the SP1 EULA now).

Not sure if that applies to OEM or Student copies..but I have a feeling that neither of the two can be virtualized.

All this stuff is in the Vista EULA..like, literally search for "virtualization" in the Vista EULA:

(those are the retail EULA licenses..not sure where you can look up OEM & student EULA documents)
