As a windows user I have never had any problem with reactivation (and am not
personally aware of anyone who has had a problem). I have upgraded most
parts of my PCs (both have separate licensed copies of XP) and typically
clear and reinstall every year or two anyway to clear out the garbage.
At no time has activation caused me any difficulties. It all seems to happen
seamlessly.

My beef, Richard is not with activation as you describe (although as
a user I find it very annoying), but the scrutiny that is uncalled
for, such as Microsoft putting me through their gauntlet when I try
to change a hard drive that has nothing to do with the os or any app
- that is none of their business.....You change ANYTHING in Windoze
driven hardware, a card, a drive, and it will want you to
re-register, possibly even pay again (it wasn't clear). No thanks.
Great to keep IT teams busy (bless their hearts) but no thanks. I'm
afraid to even add ram.

increasing use of "phone home" activation systems I'm not sure it's
fair to single Microsoft out on that one.
