Open The Box- Now What?

This is actually a Microsoft webpage that I'm about to send you to.

We all know that Vista is Micro$oft's wild and crazy attempt at an operating system that does everything for everyone. Provided, of course, you can figure out which version of it you're supposed to purchase.

However, in an effort to stop them scurvy software pirates from absconding with the booty that is the Vista bum system, they've gone to new heights of software copyright protection.

You can't open the box without reading these simple online instructions. I can't believe they expect Windoze users to get this concept from static pictures. They should have made a video. sigh One day they'll get something right. (Of course, when they do the world will end.)
