Thanks I will give them a call once I have done the install.
I am just not sure if I should 'uninstall' the virtual PC or if I can just
delete the Virtual Drive.
Maybe the Uninstall will 'call home' to identify this OS as uninstalled.

In any case I have a few days to enter my activation key so I could run the
install now and see what happens.
