M$ denies WGA will ever kill machines
Been tested on animals and everyfink

SOFTWARE GIANT Microsoft has officially denied that it will switch off the machines of punters that refuse to install its super soaraway , Windows Genuine Advantage (WGA).


Volish help-desk users were telling punters that if they did not install WGA then in Autumn, Microsoft was going to install a feature that switched off the operating system of non-WGA users.

Initially Vole refused to confirm or deny the move, however this week, a SpokesVole was much more forthcoming.

"Microsoft antipiracy technologies cannot and will not turn off your computer," a spokesVole squeaked. However she indicated that Windows Vista operating system, will force companies to activate their software differently in a bid to sink pirates. More here.
