Yeah that's what I thought. When I started the computer up for the first time it did not ask to be activated or anything.
When I installed 8 I selected the 'keep nothing' option but when it started up for the first time it had the 'Build 9200' message in the bottom corner even though I'd entered my serial ok. Turns out I'd reached my 'install limit' or whatever for that key so I had to activate by phone which worked but was a pain in the b'tox.
