Re: el kabong

"In 30 days he'll have some slightly irritating nagging telling him to activate windows."

Implications:

a) Micro-shaft Win-10-nic needs to access their "activation servers" on a REGULAR BASIS?

b) WHY was it turned into a 'Home' system because THEY broke something?

c) No PREVIOUS version of windows (to the best of my knowledge) needed any kind of continuous on-line RE-ACTIVATION process to "stay valid"

d) what if you leave your computer OFF for MORE THAN A MONTH? Or, how about OFFLINE for MORE THAN A MONTH?

e) what if it's a VM that you only run when you HAVE to? [I should test this after I back it up]

f) Micro-shaft has JUST broken their 'contract' with the users by letting this happen

In short, this whole thing *STINKS* like MICRO-SHAT <-- not a spelling error
