Vista - Registered Owner

Registered Owner

In XP's System Icon, you see a description of 'Registered Owner' or
'Registered to'
In Vista I cannot see a description of 'Registered Owner' anywhere other
than in the Registry.
While this is trivial, do you know of any menu manifestation of Registered
to or Registered Owner?

Guy

P.S. I do like to give something back to the comunity
Tip in Regedit, make use of 'favorites' to tag places you visit
infrequently but can never find.

Re: Registered Owner

Dear Jane

Many thanks. After all these years, it still thrills me when such tips
work, and menus / boxes open with just the info I want.

Guy
