 As a computer geek, I tinker alot since I retired and often wander into web sites that deposit malware that is impossible to remove with the tools I have which are formatible in thier own right. As a result I often find myself in a spot where I need to wipe the disk clean of all traces of the offending malware. As a long time computer user most of the software is the "upgrade" version which expects to find some previous OS to upgrade however since the disk needed to be wiped I do clean installs. Up until this time it has been a somewhat annoying process yet relativly process of calling Microsoft to get the newly installed software activated but since the windows 8 version of Vista is being pusshed it seems like there is a full on assault on previous operating systems. The fist individual I spoke to while plesant and eager to be helpful, my 70 year old ears could not parse the accent so I asked to speak to someone else. When someone else got on the phone the accent was not much better however the attitude was very much worse. This person parctly accused me of ripping MS off by reinstalling the OS 10 times.... ok but lets count how many years are involved in those ten years, I beta tested Windows 7 and got a copy as soon as it went gold in October of 2009 so 4+ years. This guy actually believed he was doing the right thing forceing a customer to buy a new copy of the OS because of excessive tinkering, hardly a capital offense.
