Now, if you never connect to the internet again, you'd never know. But you'll find out what it is once you do. Basically, at a minimum you'd have to reinstall windows, likely with a new copy, in my opinion.

That helps a lot. Thanks.

NP. You could always call and ask them if there's a way to do the purchase now or specifically what they will do to it... but other than that I'd send it back rather than risk paying for a paperweight.

That's what I'm going to do. It's probably going to save me $175. It would have been pretty lame waking up New Years Day to a blocked screen. Thanks again.

I did call, because I wanted to keep it for my kids, but I hadn’t signed up during the purchase program. They said it was too late to buy it and that it will be completely unusable on 01/01. I’m sending mine back.

The problem with all these green slips is that you have to fly them. Could we please get a Reserve Day with Conflict... where they move my reserve day on to an X day, pay me double, and let me stay home to work on my car?

Is it true that you can NOT green slip over a vacation day?

You can't do anything over a vacation day except relax.
