Re: [OT] Win98 to XP



Careful on that one Doogie.

The requirements of the action pack state that you must renew each year
oth=
erwise you must remove the software from your machines. The licenses are
on=
ly valid if you renew each year. Check out the small print on the website.

This is more the case with Microsofts new activation scheme as all new
soft=
ware uses this scheme and you may run into potential problems if you wish
t=
o reinstall a year or more later on.
