Sad but true. At work, I had to install XP to test my software, and I was shaking my head that after you install XP, you have 30 days to 'activate' it with M$. Fail to do so, and the software locks up. Do so, and that 300$ OS is then tied to that machine - legally, even if that machine breaks, or if you just upgrade to another machine, you have to give M$ another 300$ for another copy.
Our 233 Mhz, 64 MB test box can _barely_ budge under the load of XP. What a pile.
