I bought a toshiba satellite a215 from best buy a while ago. It came with vista installed. Today (4/9/08) I was promted that there were 8 secruity updates that I needed to install from windows update. I installed them, rebooted, and was greeted with the message that my copy of vista was not genuine and I needed to activate it by purshaseing a new copy.
here is a copy of my Validation tool output:
