First Micro$oft think its a good idea, and now everybody's following the
mold. I personally find the very idea of a security jey based on my hardware
profile to be MASSIVELY offensive - I upgrade and change hardware regularly
so this sort of thing is gonna really KILL me (not that I'm upgrading from
Win2K anyway - but XP does look the dog's preverbials).
Instead of offering ideas on how to duplicate M$ rubbish, can't we create a
petition to stop the buggers dead?
Just me having a vent...
