Rumor: Virtual Server 2005 R2 now available free

I heard a rumor that MS will be allowing free use of VSS 2005 starting now. Not sure if this is out in public yet or not.

If anybody has heard anything new, let me know. A link would be cool too.

FREE???

What?!?!?!

Wow...

But they still make $$$ off of all the licenses for the virtual server instances like XP 2003, SQL 2005, etc., right????

Yes, that was the point the person that told me made. So even though they are giving up say $500 they can easily make that back in per instance licensing.
