I was just about to pull the trigger on my Windows 7 order from Amazon ($100) and this caught my eye.
Apparently the version of windows I am purchasing is a system builder pack. I'm now worried that means I can only install it on one PC. If a component fails or I modify hardware on that PC, say upgrade to an SSD, I won't be able to reinstall Win 7 on the new hardware.
Is this correct?
How much do I need to spend on a version of Win 7 that I can install when I upgrade the hardware on my home built PC?
I saw some version of Windows for $350!!!! I can't believe others fork over that much for an OS. What do other build-it-yourselfers buy?
Thanks all and big middle finger to Microsoft.
