"Over the past several days, there have been various posts…[showing]
that a Windows 7 Upgrade disc can perform a 'clean' installation of
Windows 7 on a blank drive from a technical perspective," Ligman wrote
last week in a Microsoft small-to-medium business blog. "Of course,
from the posts I saw, they often forgot to mention a very basic, yet
very important, piece of information.... 'Technically possible' does
not always mean legal."
WFBs will of course take umbrage at the site of us ROTFLOLing, but we
just can't help it. You dirty rotten crooks!
