Thanks--much interesting stuff in that article, although I'd like it if
they'd been clearer about the stats.

I've got to say for myself, I often use the validate process on a given
machine just to be sure that in fact, I've done that. Once I'm sure that
the machines I admin are validated, I'll quit doing that and save the
keystrokes--at least for another month or so.
 
Nobody wants that Window Genuine Advantage thing that
microsoft do, hopefully this Microsoft Antispyware
wouldn't required to be a Window Genuine Advantage in
order to download this Microsoft Antispyware.
 
I found the language used in that report rather astonishing. I hope the
person quoted was paraphrasing rather than attempting to quote actual
customer feedback.

On the other hand, I don't think that the stats are astonishing--and I do
think that the Windows Genuine validation process will be required. This
isn't something new, or hidden--check out this press release from
January--in particular he paragraph beginning "In the second half of
2005...."
