You've got the whole concept of a removable drive wrong. You don't install
the OS to the removable, only your data.
At this point you're playing with fire, as I don't think the 2nd install is
going to come off nearly as easy as you think it is. If there's any
important data on that drive, I'd

I should have to pay extra to buy a post office box address or these privacy
add-ons, so will have to have a new address and maybe new phone # and take

shouldn't have to mean having personal info. made public unless
Well, only a few days ago, I knew virtually nothing about this domain
registration business. Yet I rather quickly came to the tentative
conclusion that it doesn't make sense that people are allowed to register
other people's names...
So if it's illegal or clearly unethical, why is is allowed,

Not a great analogy. We are talking about people registering someone else's
name to presumably use for commercial benefit, including, in effect,
blackmailing them to pay to get a name that someone else has, as you say,
cybersquatted. Unless you can tell me some legitimate purpose for
I put out a proposal here at the office to get a number of notebooks
and in order to keep them all in the same state, we'd ghost one and
apply the image to the rest. My understanding is that a Windows
license is mapped to a MAC address - is that true? Has anyone done
this before where you'd

Yeah, I saw that, but no native shortcut. Heck, there are no less than 2
ways of doing this on a PC without waiting for the screensaver to kick in.
Just illustrating that Windows does this simple, yet very valuable, thing

I have no problem with this private indentifying information being held by

If the USE of the name harms or injures the famous person then
it's on the injured party to seek remedy. Typically I believe that
