Thanks for changing the way you do Windows activation and doing away with your online activation. I have 400 computers to support and we image them all. Now, I have to sit on hold forever every time I need to activate something. And since I'm in the middle of deploying 50 new machines, I can't tell you how much I appreciate that. Now I have plenty of time to read LJ and surf the web while I sit on hold.
Blah.
EDIT- we just found a workaround. Since we sys prepped the image and checked the box for preactivation so now when we get the activation window, if we tell it "remind me later", we can log in and all is well. It's pre activated and I don't have to be on the phone forever.
