Can anyone tell me if Windows Vista product keys are region encoded?
I bought Windows Vista Ultimate Upgrade Edition from Amazon (USA) and had it
shipped to a friend in the States and had it sent to me here in the UK.
Amazon will not ship it outside the USA from their Amazon USA site. Also
there is a sticker on the case that says only for distribution in USA and
Canada.
I was wondering if the product key is specific to the country of origin.
Therefore when I register it should I use my friends address in the States
or can I register it at my own in England. My main concern is if I ever have
to re-activate it and call them because it is quite likely that I'll upgrade
hardware in the future.
Many thanks!
