I know, I wish linux would go mainstream one of these days, legally that would
solve loads of things when it finally did.

The rest of us are or are supposed to be honest people or at least we hope so.
I don't mind if stuff is reasonable, but having to pay more for a key escapes

Hi Shaun,
The law is on the side of the parent company who holds the copyrights
for the software. If you buy Windows Vista for $250 one day and your
computer dies the next and you need a product key replacement and
microsoft charges $215 for the new key that is their legal right. That

Hi Shaun,
Well, hardware activations are hard to crack for the average gamer.
However, if there is a will there is a way. I have already found cracks
for Vista ultament and Windows Server 2008, and the question is what did
all of Microsoft's security acomplish them?
Answer is it didn't change a
I would like to add that I recently needed extra keys for the vista
machine at home where I've installed all my games since getting rid of
my last XP machine earlier this month. I successfully received keys for
Sarah from Phil as well as the necessary keys from BSC and GMA without a
problem wha
thats all and good as long as you are prepaired to offer keys or a sertain
number of keys per month etc free or have some scheme.
I do aggree with tom that I'd rather pirate than pay more than the product cost
just to get another licence, that really drives me away.
i personally don't know what I
yeah that really sucks.
Hardware activations are their own evil, they are hard to crack but they couse
the never ending user headake, which is probably why users will get pirated
coppies to bypass it.
Yet you make it to easy and your software is just passed round and round and
round.
So what's t
I use hardware based keys for the simple reason it is much harder for
pirates to crack your software and distribute free copies of your games.
I offer replacement keys in a timely manner for those that have hardware
failures, but this has only occured a handful of times out of 200 plus
copie
Hi Liam,
Yeah, it is not an easy choice by any means. At first I had plans to go
the hardware id root, and then my laptop died, I picked up a used laptop
cheap, and discovered Microsoft screwed me over the hardware id and
product activation in Vista. That seriously changed my mind about the

Hi Dark,
Yeah, i believe Phil will give you another Sarah key. He has mentioned
on list a time or two he doesn't have a problem sending out an extra
product key as long as you own the second computer.

Hi,
Exactly. USA Games also doesn't offer hardware based keys because it is
both a hastle for everyone, and I personally can relate to the end user
experience of having a new key generated every time you buy a new
computer, do hardware upgrades, etc.
For example, back in February I purchased Win

Hi.
Appologies to people if I've asked this before, but last time I was in the
middle of a music festival and thus it never got done. I'm at my parents, on my
laptop now, and would like to install some of my games. I stil of course have
all the setup files and keys.
