Changing the Product Key for Windows 8 Enterprise Edition

If you have recently installed Windows 8 Enterprise Edition, you may have noticed that there is no longer a User Interface for entering a product key during the Windows Activation process.  After seeing the lack of a UI, I suspected that I would have to resort to the command prompt and rely on "good old" slmgr.vbs.  As it turns out, I was correct.

You can review this article for more details on how to activate Windows 8 Enterprise Edition:

NOTE: This process can also be used for Windows Server 2012 Volume License Edition.
