Bob -

-> One more reason that MS may not drop the activation scheme is the fact that
-> corporate multi-wotkstation licenses do not require activation. If an IT 
manager
-> had to activate 100 work stations, I think they would tell Billy G. where to
-> go.

I sure would.  Right now we battle some similar problems on our Sun
Solaris boxes with our web-java based application server software.
We're having to constantly contact them for license activations 
and it's a pain in the neck.  Right now we service approximately 
850+ application servers globally.  We have another 8000+ Wrk Stns
we maintain that run WinNT/Win2k at the moment.  We definately 
wouldn't run the activation process on 8000+ wrkstns.
