A sneaky change in Windows licensing terms | |
|
||
| Time: 01:51 EST/06:51 GMT | News Source: ZDNet | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum | ||

Coming from Ed Boot at ZDNET: Two notable changes between Windows Vista license terms and those for Windows XP are: 1) failure of a validation check results in the loss of access to specific features (this is the SPP news you’ve likely been reading about this past week); and 2) an increase in our warranty period from 90 days to 1 year, which brings Windows in line with most other Microsoft products. I read through the license agreement for Windows Vista Home Basic, Home Premium, and Ultimate (PDF) and saw lots of new language. Much of it just formalizes what Microsoft has been doing under separate agreements for some time, such as the Validation requirements introduced with Windows Genuine Activation. | ||
