It's free if you're willing to break the EULA. I haven't paid for it. Just used some Win 7 CD key I found online and it activated.


Not even break EULA, just download from Microsoft and install without activating.


That is breaking the EULA:

"You are authorized to use this software only if you are properly licensed and the software has been properly activated with a genuine product key or by other authorized method."


Ah, you're right. Wow, that EULA is very different from the reality of how people use it, and MSFT makes no attempt to enforce it.


Ehm, I guess you have never heard about BSA raids, right?
