Nov 12th 2007 2:39PM (TUAW.com)9, XP Pro, if I remember from my forum trawling regarding activation on Parallels, has virtualisation in the EULA, whereas Home doesn't, meaning Pro you can virtualise, and Home you can't (although "can't" because it doesn't say you "can"). Now Vista I think may be adverse to virtualisation in the EULA, or maybe it's into it; can't remember.
7, you can't "activate twice", windows is tied to one computer generally.
And 16, probably the best solution for someone having trouble with the activation on Boot Camp not appearing to have been noticed whatsoever by Parallels or Fusion (and vice-versa) is that you have to look at the two profiles. If what Windows sees as the computer when using a virtual machine is sufficiently different to what it sees when it uses Boot Camp, it will think that they are separate machines (Correct logic, if a little flawed). What you want to do is try to get them as close as possible. I think in many cases (including my own) this will be purely to do with the RAM allocation. All that needs to be done is for the Virtual RAM to be at least half the Boot Camp RAM (or rather the computer's ram). So, in my case, all I needed to do was increase my Parallels' (now Fusion) RAM from 768MB to 1024MB).
Anyway, maybe that will help people with their Activation woes.

Dec 6th 2006 11:08AM (Engadget)This, obviously, is based on the article being factually true. And considering that the machine is apparently described as a PlayStation GameBoy, it seems less hopeful.
