Well, there may be some reasons not to activate upon installation... At my job we use industrial PCs with Windows on our equipment... We install the computer, the OS, and the applications we require, but do not activate because it is not technically ours. The customer needs to do that. But, sometimes our equipment can sit in a warehouse for a year or even years before being installed as the customer gets all their ducks in a row. Then we get the calls about Windows not working, and we just have to explain that they have to do it. Made even harder as these machines generally aren't allowed to be hooked to a network, and are installed in rooms with no phones and where cellphones may not be permitted.  |
