Its simple programming to control an install from being zipped up and sent to all your buddies by having it examine the machine its on and treat any new major hardware config as a new machine.

I don't see how anyone could consider adding RAM a " major hardware config".
Don't modern CPUs have some kind of identifying code hardwired into them? (ISTR they were quite controversial when introduced; maybe companies stopped using them.) Changing CPUs would count as a major hardware reconfig in my book.
