Actually it's mostly the same as any other Microsoft Operating Systems. It won't prevent you from installing something, either unlicensed Office or anything else. I've used it for about 6 months now and I never had any problem installing anything. So, no XP is not that intelligent.

Something that has been causing a lot of buzz lately involves XP SP1, which will supposedly refuse to install on a pirated copy of XP. I think this is based on a couple of product keys that are known to have been pirated. As far as I know, XP doesNOT have the ability to detect and uninstall unlicensed copies of any software. Considering that in most cases the license is a piece of paper, the OS can't tell the difference anyway.
