Right now here is what MS's stance is (and it has changed 3 times in the
last 6 months)
Any 2000 pro workstations will require a purchased TS cal for Windows
2003 server.
Any XP pro workstations that Enterprise customers have purchased before
the date that 2003 Server goes public will have a 2003 TSCAL. Any XP pro
machines/licenses bought after that date will have to purchase a 2003 TS
CAL.
The thing about the ones bought before the gold date confuses my some.
Its like it makes two classes of XP pro, but is really just a way to get
more money and doesn't make sense.=20
MY GUESS. They will "finalize" their licensing and EVERYONE no matter
what OS will have to purchase a per device CAL>
I personally see a lot of companies going to the named user license
model if MS decides to keep it as it is in RC2

Have you seen what I posted earlier? Do you know this to be true or not?
I would assume this is going to tick a lot of our customers off:
Our instructor in a 2003 Server class earlier this week said that 2000,
XP and beyond will not have a "free" built-in TS CAL for 2003. It does
for 2000, but will not for 2003. As of right now, they don't plan to.
Just the messenger....
