A computer-readable registration medium has a unique computer-readable
identifier. The registration medium identifier is stored in a computer
database. Also stored in the computer database are a box identifier
associated with a box in which the registration medium is packed and
product information for a product packed in the box. The registration
medium identifier is associated with the box identifier, which is
associated with the stored product information for the product. The
registration medium can be a CD-ROM having the registration medium
identifier encoded thereon and having a barcode disposed thereon. The
registration medium causes a user computer to read the registration
medium identifier, prompt the user to enter registration information into
the user computer, and send the registration medium identifier and the
entered registration information to a product registration computer.
