Why should one have to reactivate? Exactly This is one of My Big Points.. I am a COmputer Hobbyist I guess you can say I run a BBS and like Plying with My Computer Not eh Games or Software BUT the hardware. Heck It I had to Reactivate My System every time I changed it I would have had to do it At least 30 Times over the last year. I play With My Machines. I move a drive from here to there I Add Memory Or change Motherboards or Chips Heck we get new chips out every Month any more:-) The way they want to run things you would not upgrade. Because it would be a pain to do so. Bob --- Platinum Xpress/Win/WINServer v3.0pr5 * Origin: Bob's Place BBS Mesa,AZ (www.bobsplc.com) (480)610-5160 (1:114/59) .
