Well, for whatever its worth, I've logged in with Bill to become a system builder.
That aside, the following statements hold true:
The sticker system works. Microsoft printed them and sold them, so I don't feel so bad. They activated them, too.
I may not have had an OEM license to sell the $0.99 audio cable to be LEGIT and all, but I'm trying.
XP Pro is easy enough to install illegally and apparently completely - I've seen it from my unemployed acquaintences. But all the XP's at my address are wholesomely endorsed by Bill and his shiny holographic stickers.
So, we'll see this to it's conclusion. I just hope I don't have to pay $40,000 to Redmond just like some company who wants to get their drivers approved.
Thank you guys for the insight.
