Yah ... I reinstalled Vista about 10 times because I was a bit of a software test geek back then ... I'd sign up to every beta out there and mess with everything. But I liked a clean system so I'd keep reinstalling. Microsoft activated it online every time with no problems.
However ... when I had XP ... evey time I reinstalled, Microsoft made me phone up and activate with a real person!
In regards to pirating Windows. Yes. I know people who pirate it. I just can't bring myself to do it. I did when I was a kid. But that's before systems came with Windows on them. I had a pirate copy of DOS6 and Windows 3.11. LOL!
I think I pirated Windows 95 too.
But nah... since XP and on, and earning money with systems I use, I couldn't bring myself to pirating. I feel too bad. Hell, I even paid $25 for my copy of Flash FXP FTP application
hehe. It feels so much better owning things.
I don't pirate videogames either. And I don't download illegal music. I think it's as bad as stealing someone's wallet.
