Hello all,

Would you please forward this email to your department contacts?

Thanks,

Taylor

When we release Windows Vista, we will require activation for all
installations. This is a huge change from our previous products for volume
licensing customers. Please join us for a Live Meeting to discuss the new
changes. Once I have formal whitepapers about this process, I will send them
out. In the meantime, please register for one of our Live Meetings.

Event Overview - With the introduction of Windows Vista, Microsoft will
include updated product activation technology for our volume licensing
customers. This session will provide an opportunity to hear firsthand about
the changes and how these would work within an academic setting.
