computer users there have dial-up access to the internet.  MS has
practically cut itself off of about this percentage in terms of potential
sales.

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.
