Windows Embedded? Windows CE? Windows Mobile? I must admit I lost track long ago of which Windows is what in the mobile and/or embedded space, but fact is Microsoft is working hard on bringing new releases in those spaces. It's working on a new Windows XP-based Windows Embedded release, dubbed Windows Embedded Standard 2009, but the company is also working on a Windows Vista-based embedded release.

Not a big fan of the the embedded windows systems, as ive seen far to many of these BSOD.
However the bit i really don't understand is the last paragraph, why the heck would you create an embedded system that has to be activated. I thought the whole idea was that these systems are placed into kiosks and other small devices which nine times out of ten don't have an internet connection. So all of these embedded systems will need to be activated off the production line.
sometimes i really wonder who makes these sort of stupid decisions. I can understand to stamp out piracy they would stick it in the client (not a massive fan of having it in servers, but i can understand a little), but an embedded system???
Oh well, just keep pushing people over the linux.
