| Those dirty haxizers!%!(*! Honestly, I'm quite surprised that Microsoft let this happen. I remember when XP claimed I had a pirated copy with WGA a while back, and I had to call in and do all sorts of crap to get that sorted out. They went from blaming the innocent to blaming no one....interesting.

| I wouldn't be mad that people are buying the upgrade version and saving themselves a few bucks, be glad they are buying it at all. Out of all the Vista install hacks this one is probably the least of their worries..
