1. Corporate Edition does not have the validation piece. Only serial
number
2. The validation has already been hacked and not even valid anymore, even
though it will still prevent 90% of the population.
I don't see why they spend so much money on validation when it will just be
cracked. It just ups the price of the product for everyone.

Remember!!!!
XP can only be used on ONE machine. It takes a branding and authorization
code from M$$$ to activate it. If by chance you get around the activation
code it will be checked when you go to the internet and against a master
table that M$$$ has. If it is an unauthorized "copy" then you are breaking
the law and on your own. M$$$ can then prosecute if they desire. We have a
10 machine development license and each machine has to have a different
authorization code from M$$$$. The machine branding is dependent upon the
hardware making up the machine.
