    Did you upgrade first and was it activated?

    I didn't say that would happen in general, but since MS keeps track of ALL Upgrades on their Servers, they can easily determine what underlaying OS was used and how this was activated.

    No problem to trigger fishy ones to de-activate.

    Still the question remains will they do :cool2:.

    Well yeah if they weren't legal and you used a MSA insiders's account and then you quit the program I believe you will get deactivated and they have said you will. I am only talking about totally legal underlying OSes that you have clean installed after an upgrade and without using a MSA. If you did that and it was activated there is no reason on earth they will kill it. For a second let's say they did then my guess is all you would have to do is reboot to get it activated because everything was legal today is still legal on Thursday...so you see why I am so confident they won't touch it.

    If they cared about clean installs they would stop you from doing one, at the least your whole screen would light up and say if you proceed you will lose your activation on the 29th..they aren't trying to trick you into destroying your machine, they really aren't.

    Are we gonna receive "Official" 10240 or in other words RTM 28th of July as a favor rather than getting with public?

    I remember that I saw something like that.
