upgrading vista while writing this

as i write this i am online running vista. However vista is simultaneously being 
upgraded in the background, via the downloaded .iso on a DVD. I expect a reboot will 
ensue at some point, but i do find performing an upgrade while the OS is active  
and file system mounted to be a  very linux-like experience. ;-)

what got me started was wanting to install the registration key. I couldn't find 
a way to do it offline, and the online registration website isn't working for me. 
So i put the DVD in, clicked on the .exe file, and here i am. It prompted me for 
the key, and proceeded to update. Go figure.

TANSTAAFL!
