No, that would deprive Micro$oft of their ill gained profits and we
don't want to do that, do we? Why don't you just install a real
operating system like Ubuntu (http://www.ubuntu.com/) and not have to be
subjected to Micro$oft's restrictions. It's FREE and comes with access
to thousands of FREE programs. It doesn't need an anti virus program and
you can install it on as many computers as you like with no worries
about activation or becoming "genuine". Not only that, the CD you
download can be installed in hundreds of languages.
