bppree Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 Does it make any difference, from a technical perspective, to use a licensed Windows version or a Windows copy ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Reimar Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 Technicaly not as long as it works! But it's illegal and discussion about that stuff isn't allowed on this forum! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oswulf Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 It depends upon the version. Vista will gradually become less and less functional (though with SP1 this slow death will be replaced by incredibly irritating nag screens telling you that your copy isn't legit). With XP you won't be able to use features such as Windows Update, and won't be able to install certain extras. Your best bet is to use Linux - legal, cheap (or free), fast, stable, reliable.
