Pirated 8.1 and got the free upgrade to W10.

I don't let it connect to the internet ever.

Actually, I never use it, except to play pic related.

I bought a computer from a guy off Craigslist (was really good price for the build back in the day), and he threw in his boxed copy of Win7 HP with it. Box is falling apart but I've had it for, god, like 4 years now.

I got mine in exchange for 20 hours of shilling on /g/

A few years back I bought a Thinkpad which had a Windows 7 Professional license sticker on the bottom. I never used Windows on that laptop so I used the license number for my gaming desktop. Now I have upgraded it to Windows 10 Professional and I still haven't actually bought Windows at any point.

Too bad they stopped doing the sticker model, now it would be harder to put the license to another computer. I'm still trying to not buy Windows seperately, I'm hoping to use Steam OS on my next gaming desktop.

I bought an oem of Windows 7 a few years ago. I didn't have a DVD writer and my old PC had issues with booting from USB devices, so I was only left with buying Windows 7.

Here's an interesting thing to note. I've been told that you can only install an oem of Windows 7 on a single machine, that you can't authenticate it on new hardware, however I bought a new computer a few months ago and it authenticated just fine.

I really have to wonder how many times I could get away with this.

I stole windows 10 enterprise lstb n while robbing a ship on high sea. It was so shit that I installed gentoo. You should do so too.

Is pirating w7 justifiable when win10 didn't boot up amymore?

>>53585177
Robbing ships and killing people on high sea is never justifieable.

I bought 2 copies of win 8 for $15 when MS had it on sale
the rest of my windows keys come from either dreamspark or ripped from laptops
>>
>>53583986
Always pirated it. After I got a bit tech savy I installed Linux and stopped using pirated Windows. If I wasn't poorfag I would buy W7.
>>
