Re: Glad you can clean install

Not even I can defend Microsoft's licensing on this one. I laughed out loud
for several minutes over this one.

Of course, the right thing is, if you know you don't qualify for the
upgrade, you should not do this... Now, the question is, how the heck are
you supposed to know that a trial version of Vista doesn't qualify for an
upgrade to the full version? I guess we'll have to wait for some official
word from Microsoft. *still laughing my a.. off*
