Actually, that is the current license. Go to the Super Computer Store, ask
for a full retail copyof Windows and that is the license [and value] you
get. You can install it again and again so long as you use it only on one
computer at a time. Fair value too considering what you pay for a full
Retail license over an OEM license.
But with the supposedly upcoming EULA the value over the OEM license is
removed .. but the high Retail price remains. Not good. ANd there's no real
reason for it neither, especially since it is more likely that enthusiast
will be buying the license and more likely that the buyer is the person who
is more apt to be switching around parts and buying new mobos.
Sad day for and a slap in the face of the loyal enthusiast. I recommend
Microsoft relent on this plan [along with the forced WGA N plan]. |
