Peter,
Thanks for the info. I purchased a Dell with XP Home, and then installed XP
pro. I was under the impression that I could only use my XP home with my
Dell.

Subject: Re: [PCBUILD] EULA Confusion

The lesson here  seems to be that it is dangerous to read the EULA!


......The key question for you is "where did you buy your OS?" For example,
if you
got a Dell version of XP Pro, then it may only be used with Dell hardware.
This does not necessarily mean that Microsoft registration procedure will
not issue you an activation code on other hardware. It only means that doing
so would violate the EULA.
