Microsoft Targets users of Pirated Vista Ultimate

If their 'sniffsystem' finds out that I have an illegal copy of vista, will it just deactivate it or what?

how about if you have a pirated copy of vista... just don't install the update. i ran windows update this week and the update was there. i chose to hide it an never show it again.

think i may try Kubuntu 8.10 now then. 8.04 never worked with my wireless, hopefully 8.10 does, thats the only reason i dumped it a few months back, time to try it again i think.

Eh... I don't use Vista anyways. There will be a workaround. Give it a month or so tops.

Meh Switching back to Windows 7 now with the time bomb crack/watermark remover.
