Need Windows XP Full version ( where to get cheap one?)

[PhiLandShiR 18]

WRONG, WRONG, WRONG!!!

When you buy XP, or any software package from any store, you are NOT buying the software!! Microsoft NEVER sells software. NOT EVER!!

They sell a LICENSE to operate their software on a computer.

ONE LICENSE, ONE COMPUTER.

-P

I belive this if I buy it, I can put it on as many computers that I OWN. I do not loan it out or let others use it. I should be able to do that, Bill Gates is rich enough.

raphael, was the system a Dell?

(they always include an OS recovery CD with those)

[Trumplestiltskin 5,791]

Why buy XP at an unjustifiably high price?

Get Ubuntu and Wine. Freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!

Ex-Corporate machines don't - they're almost always sold or given away as-is.

maybe wrong in your book, I dont care. I have 5 or 6 computers in my house with the same version of XP and same Liceense number. I had to call in once to Microsoft and they gave me a key. So I do not put it on computers out side of mine. I wont loan it out but I will continue to re install it and put it on differnt computers in my house.

Ok if you are rich, fine, if you have 10 machines, then buy 10 copys or license, to me, I buy it once then will put on differnt machines. Maybe I am using one machine at a time.

When you install XP or any other Microsoft Software package you must click "I Agree" on their EULA ( End User License Agreement ). It clearly states that the software is for one computer and you agreed to it. You get caught in one of Microsoft's software scans and they can and will press charges for piracy ....

In fact, the owners of this web site must provide your name and address if a subpoena is presented. Its too late to change any information now as its on back up and that is also covered on a court order...

Its not wise to brag about breaking the law as this can cause problems when you want the government to do things for you... like grant visas or adjust status or allow your wife to be a resident.... you know the kind of thing I bet your wife worries about....

I think it's interesting how people view Bill Gates and anyone else who's rich. I like people who've made their own fortune. In essence, that's the American Dream -- to become successful. It's obvious that those who haven't met that yet (and may never do so) consider success a bad thing... unless it happens to them.

Your information could eventually be gathered, whether or not you supplied VJ with your personal information. It'd take more time, but it could still be done if subpoenaed.

No doubt. But it wouldn't be provided by the owner of this domain. It would have to be subpoenaed from the ISP, they are the only ones who would have that info.

Your IP address is logged everytime you post. If you do it from your home, your ISP would provide the info. If from work your employer would.

Its not rocket science....

i don't believe we were discussing whether ewok could or not - just that if a supoena was presented to the owner of a site, he or she would have to divulge the users ip that is requested.
