Specifically if you do not register you will not be able
to download any product updates. That includes service
packs, security fixes, or additional software. This is a
problem if you dont want a hackable machine. I am stuck
in a bind where I had a motherboard failure and switch
the HD to a new motherboard I can reactivate but not re-
register so now no updates which means I have a number of
bugs to worry about. I would love to be able to re
register. I even opened a case about it but no luck, and
no answers on the case.

That includes service
