It really depends on how they are billing the client and the contract they have with them.

If it is solely time and materials, then it's super fraudulent. But if it's fixed fee, then they could take 800 hours or 10 minutes but still bill that 40.

It sounds more likely that it is fixed fee and the PM is trying to keep his resources at a certain utilization rate to justify something to someone.

Do we have a bitching/sysadmin discussion channel on synirc? #shsc seems pretty dead. I can start one up if there's interest.

Apparently there's a difference between using it to develop and using it for running programs? Or so I'm told by the same boss.

Sounds like your company is using MSDN licensing for things and they don't want to buy any non-development licensing.
