It might don't know for sure. I just heard about it and they say it works
Someone will have to investigate and try it. Of course this would not be a
free test.

But the problem is you have to activate both instances, the bootcamp and the
vmware fusion or whatever, I see this as a potential problem -- if you
import a bootcamp image to vmware fusion, I am pretty sure it will ask you
to reactivate because the virtual hardware is different.

Hi, I heard about this on another list and what I understand is it is
from one of the virtual windows company and you are aloud to do this
because you can't boot from boot camp and run the virtual windows at
the same time. Or run the virtual window and boot from boot camp at
the same time. So some how it see it as one windows installed. I think it
was fusion but not sure.

You could, but the activation won't work i.e. Microsoft may wonder
that you have two different activations with the same product key.
