Is your Windows legal?

[Corey1]

My copies of Vista and XP are legal.

...and I think I still have a copy of 95 lying around here somewhere, which would be legal as well.

Does it realy matter if your copy of windows is legal REALY?

Yeah, it does.

All my installations of Windows XP are legal.

I voted yes but i'm not completely sure on this one....

I bought a copy of Vista Home Premium the day it came out, upgraded from XP MCE 2005 (legit from Gateway) for about a year. I wanted to re-do my computer so I put the disc in, installed it without a key (selected Home Premium, not Ultimate or anything like that), and put my key in when it was done.

I should add that I also had legal Windows 3.11 and Windows 95 at some point years ago. I don't have them anymore though.

i remember windows 3.1 and 3.11 and 95 ive used 3.1 and 95 never used 3.11 though

My first computer ran 95B. I never used 3.1 or 3.11 (and I have a feeling I didn't miss much).

I run

Windows XP - Legal
Windows Server 2008 - Legal (very expensive)
Windows Vista - Legal

Im quite a paranoid person sometimes, so I like to run genuine software.

i dont think microsoft would care even if you did pirate windows.

Well, my dad has a copy of vista with his computer, which is legal.
All other machines came with XP home edition legal, however i upgraded them to pro from a torrent, so its not totally illegal, just a free upgrade in my opinion.
