Yes, it depends on number of physical processors only.

It didn't change, it's always been Enterprise.
But now with Server 2008 they seem to allow one free VM in addition to the main host system.
Q. If I have one license for Windows Server 2008 Standard and want to run it in a virtual operating system environment, can I continue running it in the physical operating system environment?
A. Yes, with Windows Server 2008 Standard, you may run one instance in the physical operating system environment and one instance in the virtual operating system environment.
