Hi Jeff,
>>
If these guys want to view maps on their
intranet/corporate LAN, Mappoint desktop is
legal. Gotta buy a license for each browser that
will look at the maps and a license for the
server. Of course this kind of setup is a
nightmare for the MicroSoft EULA police and is SO
easy to abuse.

Actually, it may or may not be. Real-time vehicle fleet management and
tracking is excluded in the EULA, AFAIK. You can use the maps for asset
tracking, personal tracking, etc., but not for fleets. I think I have this
correct, but MapPoint licensing is a little dense.
