ESXi License for Single Machine, Home Use?

Hey folks -

I'm having a heck of a time here and I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction.  I recently upgraded my ESXi 4.1 server here at home to 5.  The license I had for 4.1 was free of charge, but of course didn't include any support for vMotion, etc.  It was licensed for a stand-alone machine.

Is such a license available for 5?  I can't downgrade to 4.1, so I'm kinda stuck here.

Thanks!

Perfect!  Thanks so much.  Can't believe I missed that for some reason.
