Two MSI's was my next best choice...but seriously, 99.99999% of my users
think Orca is a type of whale, will not be convinced otherwise, and expect
the correct Installer to pop up on the screen after they pop in the CD.  If
somebody wants it bad enough, well, they even had a large chunk of Windows
source code out on the torrents some years back...

It's probably not safe enough to do that in the msi - anyone could load 
it into orca and change it so that it installs without the key.

I'd just install anyway and have the code check the install key and put 
up a message / redirect to a website selling the product.  The 
alternative is two MSIs - registered and unregistered.
