[ros-dev] Getting a Windows Server 2003 license for the project?

Yeah that does make sense. However my point was, if only Pierre is going to
use it why not just get him his own copy.
A local copy running in vmware is much more useful as you have a reliable
com connection for a kernel debugger.

I asked the question before, 'would anyone use a remote copy?' and only
Pierre seemed keen.

The idea was to get a copy (or two) of Windows Home Server.

To make my long story in 
http://www.reactos.org/pipermail/ros-dev/2011-January/013809.html short: 
It is NT5.2-based and we comply with the EULA if we don't use RDP but 
mirror its console session over VNC.
The price for a single new copy of WHS would be ~90 EUR, which is why I 
even began thinking about getting two copies (development + 
buildslave/testslave).
