Aren't they all "real"?

i.e. how can you install it without "phoning home" to use jb's phrase?

There are corporate copies that don't.

Is it enough to love
Is it enough to breathe
Somebody rip my heart out
And leave me here to bleed

Is it enough to die
Somebody save my life
I'd rather be Anything but Ordinary
Please

Don't plug it into the network.

You'll still have to activate it over the phone, though.

Wade correctly points out that the corporate edition doesn't require activation. This is also true for corporate editions of other Microsoft software.
