Microsoft is changing its OEM license. They now want you to buy Windows all over again if you change your motherboard.

.........Have they lost their bloody marbles? ......do they not understand it is this kind of attitude that makes people switch over to linux and the like and also what encourages piracy ...

No marbles..no sense. :lol: The fact that you paid for an OS should not require you to pay again. Not that is matters much since there are so many hackers out there that can override any blocks. NOT that I know any. :angel:
