In short the request is to add functionality to copy the SMBIOS information from the host to be reflected in the guest machine. Use case: One prefers for instance Linux as the main operating system. The machine was however originally delivered with Windows, including some software that is desirable to run. Dual-booting is considered cumbersome. This problem could be solved by running the software in a virtualized, seamless Windows guest, but this requires that the OEM version has access to the correct SMBIOS information in order to not fail activation.",enhancement,new,other,VirtualBox 1.6.2,,smbios oem activation windows xp,,other,other
