    If love to know who these people are that pay for windows. I think 95 was the last time that I know of anyone doing it. Maybe XP.

      I can steal a PlayStation 5 too if theft is part of the discussion. Games too.

        Considering piracy equivalent to hardware theft is just intellectually dishonest. In a lot of ways, but relevant to this discussion is that piracy is way less risky, so more people do it. If you try to steal a PS5 from a store I’d go as far to say you’d probably get caught and jailed. With piracy you almost definitely won’t get caught.

          You said no one pays for Windows. Windows cost $99. Ergo…

            Ok. I’ve never paid for it like that so thumbs up I guess.
            Who’s Ergo? Is that the person telling you what to type?

                  Those are grey market keys. It’ll work, but you’re paying someone for a key that’s not legal for you to use.

                    What grey market keys? Windows came with the computer and ten was free.

                    Let it go. You’re coming back to a discussion a day later. Did you think about it in the shower or something? Lol
