Bought it, just to piss Skorpy off :smug:
[QUOTE=Warship;30918869]Bought it, just to piss Skorpy off :smug:[/QUOTE] Meh. Just couple of bucks. At least you didn't buy it with full price.
Beat Hazard is a fun game.
Here's another case of stubborn fucking ignorant parents: A friend just gave me a Win7 key off of MSDN. I'm soon going to buy a new PC, and having a key helps since I then wouldn't have to buy win7 which is around $200. When I told my parents they started going crazy over the fact that they might be "discovered" for using such key and arrested. Now, since they said they want to buy me the new PC, and since I'm the kind of guy who would gladly save his money and the others', for me the idea of not having to buy the OS is good because that money can either be saved or go into hardware. But no. They would rather spend $200 than say I'm right. Stubborn ignorant parents are at it again.
Stubborn, But as you put it, You go Win, Win out of it
Luckily both of my parents have a little common sense when it comes to computers.

Please somebody help me prove them wrong so I can rub it in their face.

Him giving you a key from MSDN is putting his education at risk they'll kick him out if they find out. But really that's on him for giving it to you. They won't find out probably but you never know.

[QUOTE=ManningQB18;30921175]Doesn't Microsoft just deactivate the key and be done with it?[/QUOTE] yes?
[QUOTE=ManningQB18;30921175]Doesn't Microsoft just deactivate the key and be done with it?[/QUOTE] They do now... they didn't used to. I have posted about a friend of mine way back when. (Now too long ago). We all played Medal of Honor: Allied Assault when it was brand new. One day one of our clan members stopped showing up on the servers and Ventrilo. We hear from him after a while, turns out he was being sued by Microsoft for piracy. It was a huge some of money (I don't think he actually ended up having to pay it) but Microsoft did it to scare him shitless.

It was funny the first and the second time, but you posted even after people said it wasn't funny. You might say we hate you for no reason, but you should really have learned SOMETHING from the 1 year and 4 months you've been here.
