Thumbs down Vista activation.....

If you have a less than perfect Vista........


I'm so sick of this activation crap. I deny all the XP ones since I have a legal system. Well, I installed the activeX so I could download the Vista deploy thing. I'll allow it as needed. Doesn't worry me, but I won't accept the full time update installed check tool.

My version of Vista states it's genuine. After the service pack and defender updates, it's genuine. Now they want more proof?
Since I'm testing only, M$ can whistle!
If I do eventually switch, Ditto. Trust me or die.

I'm giving Linux a serious consideration.

Not only that but even the price to buy Vista Ultimate sp1 is cheaper than XP pro sp2 . I was looking at Best Buy here in my city and notice XP pro sp2 is worth more . I couldn't believe the latest is cheaper than the older version. Its got to be a first .

It's only cheaper because they can't get rid of it. ATM, XP rules as the best.
