Twaites. People are so filled with FUD about Microsoft. I understand that Paul is biased for Macs which is fine, but come on. The licensing for OEM versions of Windows is significantly less than the cost of a full blown version of Windows. A lot of OEM's have proprietary motherboards/cases anyway. This change will affect very few people. It’s only for OEM versions of Windows, K. Twaites. People are so filled with FUD about Microsoft.

So if you buy a Dell with Windows preinstalled, you have to buy a new license if you get a new motherboard. If you buy the retail version of Windows you can change your motherboard as much as you want. The Microsoft new license for new mobo deal only applies to OEM versions of Windows.

That's baaaad. But, they really can't do much to stop you from doing it manually, it only applies if you take it for repairs and the mobo has failed, right?
