Fucking assholes at microsoft

About at my journey's end.

A few weeks ago my registry got corrupted and virusey and eventually wouldn't even work in safe mode so I borrowed a windows 7 disk from a friend and reinstalled the system.

Now windows is badgering me about activating my key. So I figure, fine. Quit nagging me.

Except it's not fine because after a lengthy convo with microshit, they tell me that they've blocked the key because I've already used it and it is an OEM key so I can only use it once.

I explain that it is going on the same machine and she said, "Too fucking bad, buy a new OS."

Fuckers. It's things like this that make me want to pirate the shit out of software.

They can fuck themselves. With a rusty toilet brush.
