Here is a better Idea on all the check MS does

Better Idea on all the check ms does.

Instead of Activation, Wga.

Here is the solution.

Do a CIN(Computer/software Identification Number) check.
we call the cops before purchasing a car and they check it using a
vin.

This way, the dealers, consumers. distributors and vendors can check
to make sure they have a valid operating system.

Instead of checking with the police. We would check the Id number at
a Microsoft website or by calling a toll-free number before purchasing
the operating or computer system.

Good idea but as smart as the people in Redmond are, they are
not in the database maintenance business. Nor are these systems
capable of keeping track of randomly-generated checksums that
are generated as a result of product activation. And they are
generated whenever components change within the system or with
any re-install. And, besides, there are many people who want to
remain anonymous, such as to restrict the amount of spam-mail,
solicitations, etc., and for far more serious reasons and do
you really think that this information can be secured by the
very people who sell the most-hacked OS in the world?
