virtualbox.org

We will be switching to Windows 7 64-bit and our computers are managed by a subsidiary of IBM. We have an application that requires Windows XP. Users will have admin rights so they could install a product such as VirtualBox but we may need to get permission for that. This is a large corporate environment, volume licensing for all MS products.

What would be the best procedure get VirtualBox with Windows XP running for 100 users. Obviously I don't want to do 100 installs of XP or purchase 100 copies of XP. I also would want to install Word/Excel 2007 or 2010.

Primarily I am asking from a licensing point of view and hoping to create a single image for distribution.

Thanks

The actual VirtualBox program is GPL and open source. If you need USB2 and or vRDE you would need the Extension Pack and that might be an issue, but here again if the individual user installed it that would still be considered personal use or at least that is the way it has always been.

Other than that you would need to contact Oracle sales and talk to them.
