organ_shifter Posted January 11, 2006 CID Share Posted January 11, 2006 The idea sounds good, but the unlocking method would have to be tight & secure. Otherwise, it could turn out to be a disaster. - Having a master Windows Vista operating system means customers that buy PCs preloaded with one Vista SKU, Home Basic, for example, will be able to punch their credit card into a Microsoft Web site to unlock Vista Home Premium and more speedily deploy media center features without an on-site visit or requiring a wipe and reload of the system. - Read more here: Microsoft To Ship All OS Bits With Every Version Of Vista Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheHalf Posted January 11, 2006 CID Share Posted January 11, 2006 Keeping that in mind, will PC manufacturers lower their cost on PC's if you can't get into the PC's OS without a credit card number? Or will they sell new PC's without an OS and allow a buyer to install his/her own OS? TheHalf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
