I have a massive collection of PC games, so I basically need Windows. I have a friend with a MSDN account who had an extra Windows 7 Pro license. Sweet. Anyway, after getting it set up, it's working fine and I have a burned DVD in case I ever need to reinstall it. Better yet, it's a complete license, not just an upgrade. Actually, thanks to connections, I've never had to pay for or steal a single copy of Windows dating all the way back to 3.1. Prices on them are ridiculous compared to Mac though.
"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
