System Center Essentials Licensing

I have received a lot of questions regarding how Essentials 2007 will be licensed. Licensing will be finalized shortly but as of now here is the skinny on it. Essentials 2007 will ship with a default license which allows you to manage X number of clients and X number of servers. You can then buy separate "client management" license packs, or "server management" license packs to increase the number of licenses.

The Essentials 2007 console will provide links to the page where you can purchase more licenses from Microsoft.

I know that there has been confusion on this so here is clarification and once it is finalized, I will post any updated information if anything changes.
