Does anyone know if there is a way to "keep" Win 7 without buying it? Don't preach to me now about supporting MS because as the world's richest company my few bucks ain't gonna' ruin them. I want to keep it because it really works well with COD(UO) and I have a lot of software installed that...

Hi. I joined primarily to ask this single question.
Is it possible to legally own a Windows 7 Ultimate version right now?
I'm asking because I saw a PC in an on-line store, which had the Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit version installed.
I am tempted to buy it, really, but I'm afraid I could get into...

Anybody else find it amusing all of these people having anxiety attacks and begging trying to get the latest build then find some kind of crack or activator so it works forever? You don't have to be to bright to figure out that MS is turning a blind eye to all of these recent leaks and must...
Today Win 7 informed me I was running a pirated copy of Win 7 RC 7100.
IT IS NOT.
Following the link provided by the notification, I was informed that the product is not being sold yet.
Does this mean the RC will not get any updates until it is bought??? So much for free until 2010!
A Trojan buried within counterfeit copies of Windows 7 RC was used to build a botnet of compromised PCs

build 7100 had been finalized and noticed early this morning that both the 32-bit and 64-bit flavors had been leaked to various P2P networks. Fake downloads had appeared yesterday but these were quickly removed. The latest downloads appear to be genuine.

It would seem inevitable that soon pirated editions of windows 7 will be available . Just interested in any thoughts on this .
There is a black edition but an early beta that has been made available . Why anyone would do that with a beta I dont know !
Also of note the Pirates Bay have just...
Hi everybody
Just pushing this out to speculation - but with the advent of Windows Live and the "Always On" Internet connections do people think that the days of installing a Stand alone OS on a Client computer (i.e yours) will soon be over.
The New OS'es will be Internet based -- all the...

Let's talk about microsoft and their stupid mfpmp.exe that is blocking my external subtitles, stopping me from watching TV online with windows media player and so on. If I want to watch a movie, every time I have to rename mfpmp.exe. Is there any solution to this problem? Lots of people complain...
