At this point it’s probably safe to say that this was a result of the SP 1 release candidate. Vista has not (yet) forced me to re-activate. So yes, it seems perhaps that I allowed my (considerable) annoyance at the time to get the better of my judgment while writing my original post.
It wasn’t too long ago that I was forced to re-activate Windows due to a driver change. Additionally, virtually all Windows Update patches fail.
Now here I sit again, without changing my hardware (again!), with the tag “Windows Vista Evaluation Copy” on my desktop. I swear to @#^% god if I have to activate Windows Vista yet again because of a software change….
Life’s too short to deal with this shit. What I do or don’t do will depend on how much money I have remaining from student financial aid. I may pick up a lap top for that trip to Korea, so if I have the money for that after paying for the trip it’s going to be a Mac. That’s it. No more bullshit. I’ve had it.

Well.. MACS are better anyways.. LOL… I love my MAC laptop but I also love my PC with Microsoft Office Pro.
Yeah, I would probably miss Office and its new look, especially since I can get the so-called “Ultimate” version of Office for $60. I’m seriously thinking about getting it as it will definitely prove useful for school work.
On the other hand, it would be senseless to spend the money on it when I may not continue running Windows. It all depends on how Vista behaves between now and then.
