Hello Gordon and all activation is not required at installation time at leat with Windows 7 where you can leave the product key blank and use it for about 30 days before requiring to enter a product key and thus activate the installation. That to me is the difference unless I am missing the point. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gordon Smith" <[email protected]>

Hi Mike, and Chris

it's also worth pointing out that Microsoft also assumes Internet connectivity when installing Windows. Unless you have a volume license, you need to activate it at some point. So, tel me, what's the difference?

I think it pulls some information from apple's servers when it's installing lion or later, plus it links in to ICloud too, have to keep that in mind.
