Microsoft Lifts Vista’s Licensing Restriction

Fri, Nov 3, 2006

Computer

Windows Vista Ultimate’s packaging is way cool!

Ahhh…how nice of them. As most of you might know, the previous terms was that each copy of Vista will only be allowed to be activated twice. This makes it impossible to change your computer twice without rendering your copy of Vista useless.

Today, to the delight of everyone, Microsoft has decided to lift the restriction. As long as the software is removed from the previous computer, the Vista license can be legally transferred to another indefinitely.

Thumbs up to Microsoft for listening to its customers!

P.S. Don’t you agree that the Vista packaging looks real neat?

    Just hoping that the inner content is also as good as the cover looks….Long long ago I had read that never judge a book by the cover. Now the new era has come to change it to never a judge a software by the packaging :-D :-P
