I know that. I meant that if i create a heap of fake hotmail email accounts, and then use those fake accounts as the contact email addresse, that they ask for in the postal details. So that they can send 'em out to your house..
Then i would just use the same postal addresse for each time i re-apply for the usb device..
Would that work?

Hmmmm..............
The transfer of OEM licences is interesting. Actually, they consider the MoBo to be the "computer", so if you change that, they want you to buy another copy of the OS.

It probably would if you made them each out to someone else:
John f2b
Greg f2b
Joe f2b
Matt f2b
They might all be your brothers who have registered Windows systems

Hmm and i always thought that it was the Hard Drive that they considered to be the computer, and once you replace it you then had to get a new license before installing windows again.

Hi Fronties~
With the HDD, you just replace it and reload the OS. You then have to re-activate Windows.
It is all embedded in the MS EULA. Unless you replace a failed MoBo, that is considered to be a new machine.
Obviously, you can add memory, CD, DVD, HDDs and the like, as that is upgrading.

I only have 1 hotmail acct., and I just filled out 2 orders with my g/f name and my name and same address, it went thru, but will have to wait and see if it actually works.

Hey Hey,
I just went back to the site and the image now says "Supplies now Gone"... also this is at the bottom
*This offer is available in the U.S. only while supplies last. USB drive is 16MB in size. Limit one per customer. Please allow 6-8 weeks for delivery.
Looks like those of us outside the US won't get it.. and if you went after visiting this post.. it's still to early to tell if you will get it or not.
Peace,
HT
