    My friend got me a copy of XP.... It was a copy... I have no idea where he got it. Ever since, I have come here I have learned about cracks etc.. in pirated software..... :(

    Now that I have gotten that off my conscience.....

    I can't buy it until after Christmas because of the money factor....

    How many fools are there out there using pirated microsoft XP.....

    If you use a pirated version of XP, you won't be able to download updates because your XP sends a computer key signature to the Microsoft database (when you update) and if your key was already in use, then it won't download the updates. This is only for XP though, and it's better than getting arrested! (Even though you eventually will lol)

    So, in conclusion, don't steal kids. :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:
