I wonder if it reports all the 'on by default' Micro$lop 'phone-home-ware' built right in to windohs?! Everything after '98' should have had it built right in to the OS, the nerve! They are offering a free beta for now, pay them later for software to fix the other software they sold you in the first place. Ummm...how about a RECALL Billy G., just like the car manufacturers! Windohs is broken right out of the box!

No surprise actually.. It's a tried and tested marketing tactic. Microsoft uses it all the time. They give out free copies of Windows in the guise of "charity" and earn lots of cash when these people get hooked to Windows and have no choice but to pay to obtain copies of the newer version of Windows...
