Thank you for your explanation.

I’m not sure whether it’s a bug or a company policy. If its a company policy then they should have issued 2 keys at a time rather than issuing it at 2 different times as many people won’t even know this trick. But we don’t know the fact.

I’m glad that it worked for you.

Thank you for participating in the Microsoft Windows Vista Customer Preview Program.

You have received the maximum number of Product Keys available for this program.
Note: Windows Vista RC1 can be installed and activated on up to 10 PCs with one Product Key.

So I guess it’s not a bug but rather a company policy. That makes 20 PCs with the two keys. After that the rootkits kick in.
