No problem ... volume licencing products do not require this, so it would never come up. In fact if you have 20+ machines, you should look at volume licencing for when Longhorn comes out ... buy it with Software Assurance and you can spread the costs and get cheaper updated OS's when they come out. You can go volume, Open business, with just 5 licences.
Yeah, that's how we did things at Symantec. One piece of printed paper that showed we owned "X" number of licenses. But these machines are purchased from Dell, and they didn't give us that option.
Most of my dev machines from MSDN copies of software, so no activation there. I just can't imagine what non-tech companies will do when something like this comes up. (I guess buy time from the Geek Squad.)
