Just one comment. Microsoft will *not* have got their money. That so
called 'Corporate' version is a pirated volume license for which MS have
received nothing
Merely reformatting (and I cannot see why the OP is doing it five times
a day) will not cause you to run out of ability to activate on the net.
If he *is* doing this he gets a new 30 days in which to activate each
time, so he probably never needs activate at all.
There is however one point that can conserve a 'vote' in the matter if
you reformat: See the 'Format Hard disk' section at my page
