If MSFT wants to play hard ball with the EULA it is just another case for the OS options that are out there. I have had experience with MSFT and their Validation techniques. Try getting 50+ numbers off some one who can barely speak english !!!!! I am in noway biased but when you have to repeat yourself 5 times because the person on the other end does not understand you due to the language barrier or why you might be reinstalling the OS. THat is an issue !!
