Because all pre-release versions come to an end.

Your RC2 expires before it was even released? You certainly got gypped
and should demand your money back from MS.

All pre-release versions of Vista will expire on either 31 May 2007, or 1
June 2007, depending on your time zone ;-)

What if you want to keep it running longer than that? Just set back your
computer clock back, say, one year?

Sure. Go ahead. Then you will see the multitude of other problems you cause
by doing so.

Well, Windows Update would stop working, for one thing. And will that really
work?
I had a beta 1 install that I didn't activate before 30 days, and didn't
have the TCP/IP configured right, so I couldn't activate it. I tried setting
the clock back and it didn't work. Ended up reinstalling...

Try it now and see.
But typically setting the date/time forward or back is cumulative.
Once the time has passed and the time bomb has gone off, only a Clean
Install can resolve it.
