It seems that one would be well advised to think twice before upgrading Microsoft products as both Office SR1/2 and now the entire operating system (Whistler) is in the enforced mode of "you can only use it on one computer and you need our permission online". The security and privacy implications are not trivial. Not to mention the hassle everytime one needs to reinstall software (due to a crash or HD change or when buying a replacement computer). Microsoft seems hell bent upon cash-maximization. Andre' N4ICK http://www.windows-help.net/Newsletter/13jan2001.html |
