Hello All,

Hoping someone can tell me how the 5-user governor affects multiple
instances of MSDE.

Does each instance allow unrestricted performance for up to 5 users, or

will the 6th user experience slow-down regardless of which instance db
he/she is using?

Also, with a VS.NET license, does this provide license only one instance of
MSDE, or can you install multiple?
