Product Activation

When activating ACA 2008 I am sent an email with an activation code and
request code.

Any reason to keep this?

Only if you need to reload product any time in the future. Always a good
idea to keep that stuff in your 08 folder.

I dont see any reason to keep it.
I am never offered an opportunity to enter the key in any other future
install.

If you do a totally "Clean" install you would. If you had to replace the HD
you'd have to get a new Auth code.

They're also saved on your hard drive.

When I setup a new computer, I install from deployment image.
The user is not prompted for any information when I run from the image. I
just dbl click and 10 min later its installed.

When I first run the program after that, it automatically goes into product
activation. Again, without asking user for input.
Is there supposed to be a place for me to re-use the code?
