IE7 and WGA

Such beautiful praise from Paul Thurrott:

Internet Explorer 7.0 Beta 3 is a solid, feature-packed browser that all IE users should flock to immediately. While it's not enough to make me switch from Firefox yet--I still love certain Firefox features such as inline search--it's no longer an object of ridicule either.

What I do dislike, however:

Is this happening with everything? Will WGA ever stop? (Well, yes, in that case. But you know they want to do it.)

The copy of Windows XP I'm using is the one that came preloaded with my laptop, but we deal a lot also in volume license versions for our customers (more Office than Windows, as there's little point in buying Windows twice, and we can't exactly buy PCs without it now, can we?) I don't appreciate being made to feel like a criminal every time I want to do anything.
