So, I bought a three-license Windows 7 upgrade pack and installed it on my wife's computer (from Vista) and my computer (from XP). The motherboard died in my computer, so I got a different motherboard (same processor though) and reinstalled Win 7. The power supply, motherboard, and processor went down in my computer just recently, so I got a new motherboard, processor and power supply. I installed Win 7 again, but Microsoft won't activate it (I've hit the three license maximum). But it's the same freaking computer! It's the same case, same screen, same location, etc. I had to go spend $211 (after tax) for another freaking license for win 7!
It's the same dang computer!
And I tried to find a phone number to call someone, but if there is a phone number, it's incredibly hidden.
So, in an effort to stop pirates, they're ostracizing someone who's not a pirate and always buys licenses. A-holes!
