Is changing the processor considered a move? I regularly replace my motherboards and processors. Since I often have to reinstall XP, I'll assume Vista will reject. Hmm... This is not a good thing.

The parent article says " they limit the number of times that retail editions can be transferred to another device". Doesn't sound to me like a processor or motherboard replacements will be affected, that seems to be the hype of those predicting imminent Microsoft collapse.

This is not a good thing.I change things around too. Vista is a disaster for tinkerers. XP was bad enough with its "phone home" BS
