"Software vendors have proceeded cautiously on the core question, with
rivals IBM, Oracle, Sun, Microsoft and others waiting to see how the
others approach the issue, partly to learn what works and partly to
have the opportunity to counter."
"As servers with dual-core processors come closer to hitting the
market, Microsoft (Nasdaq: MSFT) Latest News about Microsoft announced
today it will not base its per-processor software licensing charges on
the number of cores in a chip, sticking to the traditional price per
processor, regardless of its number of cores."
