Activation of Vista Ultimate on Dell PowerEdge 2800???

I have a Dell PowerEdge 2800 Server. I am running two Xeon Processors and
4Gb of Ram.
Hard Drive are set up for RAID 0.

So I used the DELL OEM version of Vista Ultimate on the Server to see how
well i liked it.

Well I loved it for the last 30 days... This server is used as a PC more
less for the performace and Hard drive space.

I play games and do video editing, and a few other things.


I have every intention of buy the Vista Ultimate from Best Buy this week, (
On Sale)...
But some friends of mine are telling me Microsoft will not allow the OS to
activate because of the computer I am installing it on.


IS THIS TRUE???


Please provide me with good news, I really want this to work...

Thanks for everyones time with my topic.


Thanks

IMHO your friends are wrong. If it installs and runs it will probably
activate if all else is legitimate.
