Quoting TheSmJ

Microsoft is basicly forcing our community to rip-off their software.

That's what gets me... we're not ripping MS off. If we own the copy and we own the hardware, I want to be able to install the darn OS as many times as I want. END OF STORY.... It's not ripping MS off.

Microsoft, you had better re-think how you implement this idea!!!! It's gonna bite you in the butt and cost you more than you can image!!!
