Anti-Anti-Feature: An antifeature that doesn’t actually do what it’s meant to (something you didn’t want in the first place)

My laptop came with a Windows Vista license. An anti-feature in itself – I didn’t want it, have never used it (I run Ubuntu and love freedom).

However, if you try and read the license key off this sticker, it’s increasingly difficult to do so. It’s being worn away. Why? Because it’s on the bottom of the laptop and I’m using it on my lap (so friction rubs it away).

Luckily I don’t run Windows Vista and need to re-install it any time soon.
