Subject: [H] Motherboard upgrade gotcha
transferred from another computer. If the motherboard is upgraded or
replaced for reasons other than a defect, then a new computer has been
created and the license of new operating system software is required.
I predict that Vista will end repairable computers. Microsoft may very well
choose to simply end it for us small OEM's. After all, we produce a product
that outlasts a name brand anyway.
OR
Microsoft may simply choose to rent Windows. Either way, Microsoft wins and
the customer loses and I have to go get a real job.
