I have a copy of Win XP that I have been ringing Microsoft (Australia) 
about.
It now has 14 days left to be activated, which I have no intention to 
do, so when it's off
it will stay off (need another coaster??) :-) . Seems the company that 
put together the box for me agreed to the "Terms and Conditions"
when they installed it. A stand alone disk, so looks like I have been 
shot in the foot.
Won't  be re-installing it,  thought it would be a good idea to help 
some of the locals,  but  they will have to help themselves, or do the 
smart thing and switch :-)
