Guest Dusty Lipschitz Posted October 31, 2001 Share Posted October 31, 2001 anyone else get it? my girl got a new computer and it came with it. it's different. im wary of change and hate microsoft, but hey. it's a fuckin free (to me) super computer, so I can't complain a whole lot. so does anyone else have it? figure it out? hate it? any thoughts/feedback? i havent played with it enough yet to really have an opinion, but i'm sure someone else on here has and does. lets hear it.

Like it doesn't work if you don't pay for it at some Microsoft website with your credit card. Whatever, I'm gonna at least find out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zack Morris Posted October 31, 2001 Share Posted October 31, 2001 i got a copy of XP pro about 6 weeks before its public release date. There is no online registration with this one but this is a copy that was given to microsoft employees and then got pirated over the intrenet so that may explain the no registration. I like it. I mean its alot different from my last OS(win98). I am still learning the software but its not bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Posted November 1, 2001 Share Posted November 1, 2001 ive heard that security on pirating XP is tighter than my girls ass like you can only put it on one computer therefore making you buy multiple copies at whatever sum of money they go for...rat bastards at microsoft!

Zack Morris Posted November 1, 2001 Share Posted November 1, 2001 when, that wasn't the case with my copy...my friend that gave it to me has burned almost 50 copies of it for other people and has had no other problems..but like I said this was a pre released version made available to microsoft employee's so that may explain it....if I talk to him tonight I will post the ftp that he got it from if its still up.

graffitiSUX Posted November 1, 2001 Share Posted November 1, 2001 win xp (from what i'm told) won't let you use unregistered software. thats a pretty weak point. also, if your pc is older than about 1.5/2 years, don't bother installing it. it would be smart to wait a year or so before using it or else you'll spend the next year or so having to download patches for it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
