Is there any truth to this statement by Fred Langa? (from Information Week - Is Windows XP's 'Product Activation' A Privacy Risk?)

"Corporate customers also got a modest WPA change. Site-license holders can enter a master key code that obviates the need to separately register every machine in the company. (But it's unclear whether or not the phone-home activity stops; my read is that it does not and that could end up eating a lot of bandwidth in companies with many PCs.)"

If that link fails, try this cached copy: »www.google.com/search?q=cache:f1···22&hl=en
