Of course it doesn't cut down on piracy - heh:
I bought MS Windows XP Pro, and paid a pretty penny. Then, because I have
an issue with having to re-Activate every time I change enough components in
my computer, (I change them *alot*) I downloaded a corporate copy of XP... no
more phone calls to MS every other week explaining why I decided to change
components in *MY* computer. Oh, and WGA my status... *angelic tunes here*
-=Genuine=-; MS thanks me for being a good little customer and using a
"Genuine" product, when the Genuine product is sitting on my desk, not
installed. Pfft.
/end rant
