Thanks for the very quick answers.
They are indeed reassuring.
I guess by the time you remove the DRM I will not have used all activations as I do not change computer so often.
To answer eisberg: usually when I change the computer I do not de-install previous software. It was not an issue before this kind of limited activation-DRM. And I still feel I shouldn't do it. It is a constraint and legit customer should not have constraints. But we should not debate that here
Also I do not like the 3rd solution, not only for what it underlies.
But also:
1) you never know what kind of trojans or what else are lurking.
2) usually they are not up to date with the latest patch.
3) this is not the software intended and validated by the developer.
4) the performance of the game degrades in the long run (at least it is written so in the book))
