Leopard' Server Gets Virtualization

Macintosh OS now lets users partition their Apple servers into multiple, virtual machines allowing for "other copies of Mac OS X Server software."

InformationWeek says "According to the license agreement for the server version of its new Leopard OS, users can install on Apple computers "other copies of Mac OS X Server software" in addition to the original copy, provided that all the additional copies are fully licensed.
Under those terms, users could partition their Apple servers into multiple, virtual machines using virtualization software from vendors like Parallels and others."

This is a departure from Apple's previous licenses agreements and a sure sign that Apple is wanting more business from corporations.

It will be truly interesting to see where this goes from here.
