Update, Fri. Oct 13, 11:00 am: The initial version of this story
erroneously mischaracterized the way Microsoft's Vista license applies
to user of the OS in a virtual machine, stating that there was a
blanket ban in effect. This is incorrect; we regret the error. The
updated version of this story removes all references to a VM ban,
including a change in the headline, removal of a virtual machine
reference in the lead paragraph, and the deletion of the fifth and
sixth paragraphs of the original story.]
