Managing Volume License Keys
I spotted this little gem of a post while trawling Twitter for something totally unrelated, and realised that I've been looking for a tool like this for a number of years.
The tool in question is the Volume Activation Management Tool (VAMT) 2.0, a product which (in a nutshell) makes light work of managing all the keys you get as part of, say, your Technet Plus subscription. You import your keys, and your machines, and the app tracks how many activations you have left on each key as well as showing which machine is running what software.
Great stuff - and don't forget to check out the stack of relevant literature available about VAMT on the Microsoft website.
(Sidebar: Aaron Parker's Stealthpuppy Blog is a great resource, and will probably be the blog that gets me using an RSS Reader one of these days.)
