Hi,
Exactly. USA Games also doesn't offer hardware based keys because it is 
both a hastle for everyone, and I personally can relate to the end user 
experience of having a new key generated every time you buy a new 
computer, do hardware upgrades, etc.
For example, back in February I purchased Windows Vista after it was 
released. i installed it on my computer, and by May that computers 
motherboard bit the dust. I called microsoft and explained the problem, 
and their answer was buy a new product key which was almost the price of 
the fricken software new.
I ended up shopping around, found Vista on sale, for less than the 
product key replacement, and had to start over from scratch just because 
my hardware failed, and I couldn't register it on my replacement laptop 
without a new key.
