One would think that MS would look at past practice and build for the future (Vista)to ensure/minimize the use of pirated copies instead of spending millions on finding innovayive ways of alienating current customers. It is a fact that the "pirate" world will find ways around anything MS adds to XP as fast as they come out with it.

For a power user (or a user with kids!) it is a fact that you will have to occassionally reimage your machine, and/or you will likely upgrade your machine (better, faster, etc...)
Once you do that, it's back to MS for another "activation" and proof you own XP.
There is nothing else I own where I have to go this "process".

It's not the fee, it is the fact that every time I upgrade my hardware or have to reimage my machine I have to go thru the same bs to activate my copy of xp.
There is not another single thing I own that requires the this. Why is MS different?
