First off, never post your direct email on the forum. I have reported it to the admin to remove if you don't see this for a while. http://www.vistax64.com/general-discussion/199125-hardware-personal-information.html#post915958
Second, if you never activate it, then it has never been activated.....
Its NOT like it was never installed, it just has not been activated. When you install it, Windows will make a separate partition for the bootloader and such, then the actual OS. If you uninstall it, I don't know if it removes that. But it will still leave some files behind.

When you reinstall the OS, be sure to delete the partition the OS resides on to delete any remaining files.
You should be okay...
