I'm informed it contains the following:

"You acknowledge and agree that Microsoft may automatically check the version of the OS Product and/or its components that you are utilizing and may provide upgrades or fixes to the OS Product that will be automatically downloaded to your computer."

Well I guess we won't need as many Windows SA's

I'm right at ease at having my desktop communicate with the mothership at anytime. After all Microsoft so narrowly defines "OS Product".

I wouldn't be one bit surprised if Oracle came out with something similar.
