Hello everyone,

I guess I'm not the first one who hit the problem with Microsoft's
licensing model..

Nowadays the common single or dual quad-core workstation can't be fully
used because it's limited by example: license up to 2 physical
processors. Such VM acts like 4-way or 8-way machine.

Is there any way howto expose CPUs differently for this kind of problem?

TIA, Z.
