Can I activate XP via remote computer?

[B. Peg]

No doubt the M.S. Activation by Phone Desk is closed today (1-1-04). The
shop computer isn't hooked (nor will it be) to the internet (no modem, no
connection). Luckily, I finally got it running XP after a bunch of work and
drilling through the posts.

Can I activate the shop computer from my home computer that is internet
capable?

Thanks.

No. Select the option to "activate by phone". Its available 24/7.
