Our intention behind the original terms was genuinely geared toward combating piracy; however, it’s become clear to us that those original terms were perceived as adversely affecting an important group of customers: PC and hardware enthusiasts. You who comprise the enthusiast market are vital to us for several reasons, not least of all because of the support you’ve provided us throughout the development of Windows Vista. We respect the time and expense you go to in customizing, building and rebuilding your hardware and we heard you that the previous terms were seen as an impediment to that -- it’s for that reason we’ve made this change. I hope that this change provides the flexibility you need, and gives you more reason to be excited about the upcoming retail release of our new operating system.
If i get it right the abow info say that they will make it like xp there you can use the same Vista key even if you upgrade youre hardware. As I understand it b4 thye stated this there was only one key for evry hardware setup even if the key was not from an OEM vista.
MS basically cowered after the roar that happened with the release of the final EULA, so the changed it. It will be possible to install retail versions on upgraded hardware without problems from the activation. You won't be able to with OEM versions. And BTW, XP didn't allow to install on multiple PCs (ot upgraded hardware), but MS never enforced that, because of the not-so-clear EULA about that issue.
