What "should" happen when installing Windows Vista prebeta2 on the current date?

Umm..


Where is the timebomb exactly? It installs fine but I did have to deal with activation first.

I think that all non-final Vista builds aren't even going to let you do the installation with the current date and if they do, you can't use these builds. You need to set the date to the point before the timebomb would explode to use it.
