Here´s a new and interesting development on the Windows XP copy protection and licensing registration front. Many of us aren´t too comfortable with Microsoft´s plans, and how they could affect our privacy and our computers´ usability. But those who think "Oh, forget XP; I´ll just stick with Win2K and avoid this whole mess" may have a surprise coming. It´s looking like MS is laying the groundwork to update Windows 2000 to support the same registration process as Windows XP.
