Vista tells me my version is counterfeit

image

 

Last August I bought myself an upgrade Hone Premium disk from Amazon to upgrade Windows XP Media Center to Vista. I have been using it off and on since then and just today I installed the newest updates for Vista and I received the image you see above. Im sorry but as a paying customer I will not deal with this bullshit, sorry for the language. I have already deleted my Windows partition and now have Ubuntu 7.10 as the only OS on my computer.

Microsoft goodbye its been a great 10 years.

So why did you just go and re-activate it when i had to re-install mine it took me 10 mins to call them up and re-activate it

Thor667 I think you missed the point here, it as stated the “bullsh*t” asociated with it, not the fact that yes he could have called, when he should not have to… period.
There is no excuse for such a thing to happen anymore from m$

Ouch, been there.

I remember sitting their in amazement as it took two hours to install the driver for my USB Bluetooth dongle. Yet with Edgy (at the time), I was able to get it working in a couple of minutes. :)

BTW, here is another tidbit to help you on your journey.
