    Is it the 22nd of October yet? Last i checked we are still in August. You all need to just chill out until then.

    Why? Because Microsoft will black list then magically use their super magic powers to magically change the key on all the PCs ready to ship with Windows 7 OEM magically?

    The first key, the Lonovo one, will probably be blacklisted because that was released too early.
    The rest are pretty safe since OEM machines are already being installed with Windows 7.

    It's not October 22nd yet, but those keys are already in use.
    It would cost those companies too much to go back and change the keys so that Microsoft can blacklist the keys. Too much of a hassle and too many upset end-users.

    At this point i can't say one way or another why one is closed and the other is still open. Mods make those decisions and if they closed it then there must be a reason for it.

    If the keys can be googled, there is no need to do so.

    Just chill. The thread isn't deleted yet and surely he will be opened again at October 22nd (hopefully).

    the thread was unstickied as a request from the admin. Why was it closed? Because we don't want to attract any unnecessary attention. Will we make a new thread and sticky it on the 22nd? Maybe we will see when the time comes.
