Those "updates" stink anyway. Be done with them. There are better people working on the true problems that arise. Find them.

By the way...I brought over several different versions with me (Home and Pro).


Why?
Do you collect operating systems like bottlecaps or something?
How many is 'over several'?
Did you bring WinME and DOS 5.1 with you too?

And if you have 'over several' can we assume that you're not here to teach English?

That would be the 30 day limit between installation and activation.

But you know, if just call Microsoft, you will-eventually- receive the same info. Good Luck!

Read again. He BROUGHT OVER several copies. He did not bring OVER SEVERAL copies.

Edit: Removed a C word, since I'm no longer in my post-dealing-with-children rage.

If you only use your comptuer for downloading music/movies and watching/listening to them, IMing, e-mail, word processing, I highly reccomend that you give Ubuntu Linux a try. After you install it (www.ubuntulinux.org) you can use EasyUbuntu (www.easyubuntu.org) to install Macromedia Flash and Java.... BAM! Now that's what I call a computer Smile!
