Microsoft tries to spread Vista far and wide

Vista's limitation on activations ???: I've tried to find out the limitation that Microsoft has placed on activating Vista and it's been avoided like it was never asked. I need to know without any doubts as to the number of times I'll be able to get Vista activated. I've done a lot of upgrading with XP over the years and had to reinstall many times which required calling Microsoft to get it activated. I won't buy Vista if the activation is limited to 2 or 3 as it would be too expensive to upgrade a motherboard, graphics board or hard drive and be faced with buying another license to reinstall Vista on the same box !; Posted by: intrepi@...
