Scumby - Re: " I can just imagine the Microsoft
dialog box popping up on the screen: "In order to proceed with installation, you must enable the hardware serial number feature of your PIII processor."

If you ever installed Windows 95 or 98, you would see a "Microsoft dialog box popping up on the screen: "In order to proceed with installation, you must provide the Microsoft Windows Certificate of Authenticity Code ".

I haven't heard you belly aching about that requirement.

for this version of Microsoft Windows to run on your AMD CPU, please get
the correct "software patch"
" <ggg>
